Input and Output of Information in High-Speed Digital Computers
Abstract
The input devices are designed for the preparation of the initial data and of the program of the solution of a problem and feeding them into the machine. The output devices are intended for the derivation, fixation and the duplication (in case of necessity) of the results of the solution of a problem. The input of the program into the machine and the solution of the problem according to this program, or the control of the process are performed automatically. The results of the solution are automatically taken out from the machine and set on the output carrier. From the output carrier the results of the solution are transferred, if necessary, onto the final record. The important requirements are the possibility of utilizing the equipment used in other technical branches and also the feasibility of automatic setting of the constant indices on the carrier. At the present time, the accumulated experience in the manufacture and operation of the input and output devices makes it possible to carry out their standardization and to create a number of unified sets of these devices for different types and classes of machines.
