Although there are stories that von Neumann architecture was invented by Eckert and Mauchly.

I don't know much about Zuse but I wouldn't be surprised if he was ahead of the US/UK in some areas and nobody at the time realized it.


But the Eckert/Mauchly story is much more egregious in that they were co-inventors of the "von Neumann architecture" and were ripped off by Goldstine and von Neumann.
