最早的真空管存储程序计算机（CSIRAC）之一是在澳大利亚科学和工业研究委员会的主持下于1947-1951年开发的。单词长度为20位，存储由水银延迟线中约1000个单词和磁盘上约4000个单词组成。它的执行速度接近每秒1000条指令。这台计算机以其逻辑设计而闻名，这使得编程变得容易，并使有限的存储空间得到了经济的利用。采用了一个乘法器，并使用各种单字和单位寄存器来辅助相对寻址、子例程链接、可重入编程和决策制定。输入从纸带，输出到纸带和一个改进的电传打字机。
One of the earliest vacuum-tube stored-program computers (CSIRAC) was developed in 1947-1951 under the auspices of the Australian Council for Scientific and Industrial Research. The word length was 20 bits, and storage consisted of about 1000 words in mercury delay lines and about 4000 words on a magnetic disk. Its execution rate approached 1000 instructions per second. The computer was notable for its logical design, which made programming easy and led to economic use of the limited storage. A multiplier was incorporated, and various single-word and single-bit registers were used to assist in relative addressing, subroutine linking, reentrant programming, and decision making. Input was from paper tape and output to paper tape and a modified teletypewriter.
