LARGE SCALE INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEMS. VOLUME I. INVESTIGATIONS IN NATURAL LANGUAGES.
Abstract
The report consists of five volumes containing several reports from a number of academic and research staffs investigating new approaches or new methods in the design or utilization of information processing systems, with particular emphasis on large scale digital systems. The investigations were concerned with four main areas of interest. The first is in methods for the improvement of system effectiveness and for extending the range of applications of large scale systems, with particular emphasis on on-line, time-shared techniques for user-oriented systems. The second was investigation into the application of large scale information systems to problems in diverse areas. Primary emphasis was on problems requiring non-numeric techniques. Third was investigation into measures of efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and user reaction to various types of systems, with emphasis on system and user adaptability. Fourth was investigations in the fundamental theoretical structure of large scale systems, its component elements, and related areas of technology. (Author)
