1965  PROJECT MAYFLOWER

Project Fur Hat was followed by Project Mayflower, which added a Marconi Myriad computer to the existing system, thus enabling meteorological  data to be included. The Myriad computer was the latest Marconi computer in the 1960's, using integrated circuits, but its capacity was only a fraction of what we have today in our mobile phones!  I was managing this project, so further visits to Sweden were needed.  I worked with Frank Sumner, now unfortunately deceased.
