SWAC stands for "Scientific Wideband Automatic Computer." It was an early electronic computer developed in the 1950s, primarily for scientific calculations. The SWAC was built at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and was notable for being one of the first computers designed specifically for scientific applications, particularly in fields like engineering and physics. The SWAC utilized vacuum tube technology and magnetic core memory for its operations.
