‎A method of solving second order simultaneous linear differential equations using the Mallock machine. Signed by Wilkes‎

‎1940. Wilkes Maurice Vincent 1913- . A method of solving second order simultaneous linear differential equations using the Mallock machine. Offprint from Proceedings of the Cambridge Philosophical Society 36 part II April 1940. Original buff printed wrappers. Signed by Wilkes on the front wrapper. 1 204-208 2pp. 257 x 184 mm. Provenance: Maurice Wilkes. <p>First edition offprint issue. Wilkes directed the design and construction of EDSAC the first readily usable full-scale stored-program computer. EDSAC was preceded in operation by the Manchester "Baby"prototype stored-program machine which ran for only a short time in 1948; in America BINAC was probably running programs about the same time but it too was a very short-lived machine.</p> <p>In addition to developing EDSAC Wilkes was responsible for a number of programming innovations such as labels macros and microprogramming that became standard in the computer industry. He studied physics at Cambridge University where he received his Ph.D. in 1936 with a thesis based on work performed in the Cavendish Laboratory on the propagation of very long radio waves in the ionosphere. While engaged in postgraduate research on this topic he was allowed to use Cambridge University's model differential analyzer to solve a difficult equation. This machine which Wilkes found "irresistible" Wilkes 1985 25 inspired an abiding interest in automatic computing. At the end of 1936 Wilkes was put in charge of Cambridge's model differential analyzer and the following year he joined the staff of the university's newly founded Mathematical Laboratory becoming its director after the close of World War II. The Mathematical Laboratory renamed the Computing Laboratory in the 1960s played a critical role in the development of the electronic digital computer.</p> <p>One of Wilkes's tasks during 1937 was to gather information about the special-purpose calculating machine invented by R. R. M. Mallock of Cambridge's Engineering Department which the Mathematical Laboratory was interested in purchasing. Wilkes described the machine as follows:</p> <p>The Mallock machine was an analogue device and was capable of solving ten simultaneous linear equations in ten unknowns. It was based on the use of tapped transformers with the windings connected to form a network. The accuracy obtainable from such an arrangement might be expected to be very low because of losses in the transformers. What made the Mallock machine give a useful accuracy-one part in 1000 in favourable cases-was the use of a highly ingenious feedback circuit known as a compensator associated with each transformer. As a piece of electronics this was well ahead of its time. . . .</p> <p>In order to solve a set of simultaneous equations one had first to set the coefficients on an array of digital switches. The roots were then obtained by adjusting another switch until a galvanometer showed zero. This had to be done for each root in turn. When I got to know him Mallock was experimenting with a device based on the use of telephone relays for performing this operation automatically and printing the result on a paper strip. Although this gear came with the Mallock machine it was not fully developed and we made no attempt to use it. However it gave me my first introduction to the use of telephone relays in computing or rather control circuits and to some of the tricks one can play with them Wilkes 1985 29. Wilkes 1999 no. 6.

Signed by Wilkes on the recto. 2pp. the second blank. 280 x 214 mm. Provenance: Maurice Wilkes. First edition offprint issue. "Two approaches are possible to the problem of designing circuits which will continue to function correctly even if some of the elements of which they are composed become unserviceable. One is the use of error-correcting coding systems and the other can be described as 'error detection with repetition.' . . . The second is of general application whereas the first lends itself best to situations in which information is not destroyed for example to the storage and transmission of information" p. 1.
