from
Wikipedia
Aiken studied at the University of Wisconsin – Madison and later obtained his PhD in physics at Harvard University in 1939.
He envisioned an electro-mechanical computing device that could do much of the tedious work for him.
This computer was originally called the ASCC ( Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator ) and later renamed Harvard Mark I.
With engineering, construction, and funding from IBM, the machine was completed and installed at Harvard in February, 1944.
