INFORMATION MACHINE

Abstract

An electronic digital machine designated for automating the processes of storage, search and logical processing of large volumes of information is discussed. Such a machine has extremely capacious intrinsic and extrinsic memory devices. Information machine installations basically per form logic operations (approximately 90%) and a small number of arithmetical ones (about 10%). It is used for processing statistical information concerning the national economy, search and logical processing of scientific and technical information, treatment of medical observations for refining and generalizing symptoms of an illness and methods for curing, for processing observations of natural phenomena (meterorological, seismic, cosmic, etc.).
