A number of basic concepts relating to debugging are identified and a gross theory of debugging is described. (Author)

DATADRAW is a command language, written in FORTRAN IV, to manipulate stacks, queues, lists and trees, and to display them on the CDC 252 scope system attached to a CDC 6600. A DATADRAW primer is given, and the algorithms for updating and displaying structures are described. It is noted that DATADRAW was designed to be a simple command language…

The importance of using a theory of characters in the designing of automatic computer character recognition algorithms for hand-printed letters is demonstrated. (Author)

A description of the possibilities of directly interrogating a multi-lingual terminology data bank via video display units in the TEAM Program Systems. The purpose of the data bank is to give machine aid to translators and to relieve them of time-consuming routine work. (AMH)

This document explains recent developments in computer science and information systems of interest to the educational manager. A brief history of computers is included, together with an examination of modern computers' capabilities. Various features of card, tape, and disk information storage systems are presented. The importance of time-sharing…

Much of the power of the "information center" comes from its ability to effectively use fourth-generation productivity tools to provide information processing services. A case study of the use of these tools at Western Michigan University is presented. (Author/MLW)

Discusses an open-ended, generalized programing system which eliminates the duplication of effort and materials in data collection, storage, and reporting that is common in most piecemeal-evolved current management systems. (DE)

Condensed from "American School & University," Volume 41 (October 1968), 33, 52.

Various aspects of computer and information science and librarianship are discussed, including the problem of foreign language material increasing in the U.S. and Canada. (SM)

The expanding networks of computer hardware, software, and organizations for controlling them and the institutional data bases they access are described. Improvements are making the data sources accessible but raise some new problems for data managers and institutional researchers. (Author/LBH)

Based on the idea that the current framework for organizing electronic data does not take advantage of the mind's ability to make connections among disparate pieces of information, several projects at universities around the country are taking new approaches to classification and storage of vast amounts of computerized data. The new systems take…

While data processing cannot, as yet, provide automatic translation, computer assistance is valuable for information storage and retrieval in dictionary work, text-related glossaries, and text banks. (CK)
