In the mid 18th century, A professor of mathematics of Cambridge University (Landon) designed a machine named “Analytical Engine”.
It was designed by Charles Babbage (Father of the computer) as well as Grandfather of the modern computer.

In between 1943-45, The first all Electronic Computer was introduced by John Moutchley & J.Presper Eckert at the Moor school of engineering under Pennsylvania university U.S.A.

ENIAC:

Electronic Numerical Integrator & Calculator.

1947, Another all-electronic computer was intratual by John von Neumann at the AT & TC (American Telephone and Telegraph company) named EDVAC.

EDVAC:

Electronic Distance variable automatic computer. which had stored program facilities.

EDSAC:

In 1949, Another All Electronic computer was introduced by Maurice Caillet named EDSAC (Electronic Delay Storage Automatic Computer).

UNIAC:

In 1951, Another all-electronic computer also known as the 1st commercially available computer was introduced by J. Presper Eckert with the help of IBM named UniAc/Univac(Universal Automatic Computer), which was commercially used by American census Bureau.
