The EDSAC Replica Project
On the 13 January 2011, the Computer Conservation Society announced that it had commissioned a working replica of EDSAC, to be built at The National Museum of Computing (TNMoC) in Bletchley Park. The target is to have the replica operational by 2015 and, in common with most major exhibits at TNMoC, to run it regularly in public.
The project is managed by Andrew Herbert who studied under Maurice Wilkes.

Famous quotes containing the word project:
“In 1862 the congregation of the church forwarded the church bell to General Beauregard to be melted into cannon, “hoping that its gentle tones, that have so often called us to the House of God, may be transmuted into war’s resounding rhyme to repel the ruthless invader from the beautiful land God, in his goodness, has given us.””
