The Triangle Universities Computation Center was a nonprofit organization formed in 1965 by representatives of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, North Carolina State University, and Duke University. The common goal was to provide mainframe computing services such as electronic data and batch processing to the three universities, Research Triangle Institute (RTI) and other educational institutions in North Carolina. The presidents and chancellors of the three universities, Chancellor John T. Caldwell, North Carolina State University; Chancellor Paul F. Sharp, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill; and President Douglas Maitland King, of Duke University met and unanimously approved the establishment of a joint computation center, located in Research Triangle Park. The Triangle Universities Computation Center was dissolved in 1990. Less
