Clippinger and von Neumann modifcation of the ENIAC to make it more preprogrammable, based in part of theories of generalisability encountered with conversations with Turing in the 30s.
The system has an earlier date than the published one because Booth and Britten studied it in 1946, and later in 1947, incorporating their ideas into the ARC dsign set.
