Early computers designed and built inside a university or a research laboratory rather than sold by a manufacturer. UTEC was built at the University of Toronto, CALDIC at the University of California, Berkeley, and MIDAC at the University of Michigan, each as an electronic digital computer for its own institution. UTEC stands for University of Toronto Electronic Computer, and MIDAC, the Michigan Digital Automatic Computer, was the first computer of the University of Michigan.
