Man-Machine Communications

Abstract

The objective of the research effort reported herein was the development of computers and computing techniques that aid people in some areas not traditionally subject to the application of computers. The computer graphics effort has developed computing techniques and original computer components to accomplish the realistic display of mathematically described three-dimensional objects. The waveform processing effort has used a digital computer not only for direct results in the form of processed images and audio waveforms, but also for the simulation of new techniques (e.g., vocoding) which show promise of relatively inexpensive implementation in special purpose hardware. The symbolic computation effort has produced and is continuing to improve, maintain and distribute a programming language and subsystem, REDUCE.
