Stored-program computer
enables
Composable electronic logic allows arithmetic, control, and conditional branching to be executed by unified circuitry, providing the hardware foundation for stored-program computers.

Artificial intelligence
enables
Programmable computers provide a general-purpose platform for implementing AI programs; the Dartmouth proposal included automatic computers among the requirements for the research. This relation does not claim that all neural or intelligent systems can only be implemented in this hardware form.

Mercury delay-line memory
depends on
Early stored-program machines needed main memory that could be read and written repeatedly. Mercury delay lines provided a serial storage solution that was feasible at the time.
