Larson, Jay – 1986
Success in using a computer in education as a problem-solving tool requires a change in the way of thinking or of approaching a problem. An algorithm, i.e., a finite step-by-step solution to a problem, can be designed around the data processing concepts of input, processing, and output to provide a basis for classifying problems. If educators…

Boot, M. – ITL Review of Applied Linguistics, 1974
The strategy for PASP proposed here is characterized by the: (1) ad hoc nature of some of its parts; (2) use of a linear string grammar, (3) definition of probability rules, (4) translation of those rules into a priori rules for the string grammar, (5) context sensitivity, and (6) flexibility of the system.

Chenhall, Robert G. – 1975
Several museum information processing systems are discussed in relation to their underlying assumptions regarding museum information and networking needs that have resulted in inadequate service to some kinds of museums, particularly historical museums. Rather than any of these systems, a modular approach is proposed that would allow each museum…

Scott, David – 1976
The very nature of the art object has resulted in slow progress toward electronic data processing in art museums. Art objects are described on several levels. The empirical, concerned with the piece as an object, and the main concern of the registrar, is most suitable for computer adaptation. This idea, however, is not an attractive one because…
