  • Abstract
    In 1963 Clark and Molnar1developed the LINC computer (Laboratory Instrument Computer), principally for use in biomedical research. Several of the features of this machine (autoindexing, LINC tapes, 12-bit word, data break) later appeared in the PDP-5 and, still later, in the PDP-8. It is probably fair to give Clark and Molnar credit for thus starting the minicomputer revolution.
