MECIPT


MECIPT is the name used for a family of Romanian computers built at the Polytechnic University of Timișoara. MECIPT-1 was a first generation computer built by Iosif Kaufmann and Wilhelm Loewenfeld, a team joined in 1961 by Vasile Baltac. This was the second computer built in Romania after CIFA-1 built by Victor Toma and the first in a Romanian university. MECIPT-2 and MECIPT-3 followed as second and third generation computer technology.
