Abstract :
The introduction of numerous ``mini´´ computers in the past few years has been at a pace exceeding the normal assimilation rate of the most knowledgeable engineer. A few nonaccounting applications have proved the importance of the low-cost high-reliability computer in ``process control.´´ These existing applications already attest to their salutary effect on productivity, product quality, and cost.
