In den WarenkorbStiff Boards. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. First Edition. Stiff Boards. Two early and important surveys of automatic digital computers running in the US, at a time when one could list, with relative ease, every significant piece of hardware running. The first, issued in 1952 was, 'A Symposium on Commercially Available Gene…ral-Purpose Electronic Digital Computers of Moderate Price', edited by Mina Ress. She writes: "Until recently, all commercially available general-purpose digital computers were large and cost many hundreds of thousands of dollars. Within the past year, however, a number of manufacturers have smaller, more compact (usually slower) automatic computers for sale at less than one hundred thousand dollars." [Introduction] Hart notes that the first survey of large scale computers was undertaken between 1947-48 and updated in 1950. However, "a large number of machines that were then only in the design stage are now in successful operation." [Preface] Includes: ? A Survey of Automatic Digital Computers. Washington, DC, 1953. The theory, design principles and fields of usefulness of the various forms of automatic controllers commonly used in the process industry, are discussed. Some of the computer techniques in the field of instrumentation and control engineering are described. [OOC 944] ?
