The Current Utilization of Graphic Data Processing in Industry and Education with Implications for Industrial Arts
A thesis presented to the faculty of the School of Education at Morehead State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Education by Chester Steven Rzonca in May of 1967
Hardware/software interaction in graphical display systems
A review of the principles and applications of display systems is given. A state-of-the-art survey is made of the various types of display devices and their disadvantages. A study is made of the problems associated with two particular display devices and solutions found by the use of hardware and software techniques. A communications line is occupied for an excessive amount of time when drawing graphs on a standard incremental plotter from a remote computer. This time was significantly reduced for low cost by using a satellite computer and trying various alternative coding techniques.A low cost interactive raster scan graphics system was developed that used a magnetic disc to refresh television monitors. This system was used to determine the best method for overcoming the crossing vector erasure problem. A system using the improvements to both the display devices is proposed as a further development.<p
A NASA family of minicomputer systems, Appendix A
This investigation was undertaken to establish sufficient specifications, or standards, for minicomputer hardware and software to provide NASA with realizable economics in quantity purchases, interchangeability of minicomputers, software, storage and peripherals, and a uniformly high quality. The standards will define minicomputer system component types, each specialized to its intended NASA application, in as many levels of capacity as required

NBS monograph
From Introduction: "This report is the first of a series intended to provide a selective overview of research and development efforts and requirements in the somewhat overlapping fields of the computer and information sciences and technologies. The projected series of reports will attempt to outline the probable range of R & D activities in the computer and information sciences and technologies through selective reviews of the literature and to develop a reasonable consensus with respect to the opinions of workers in these and potentially related fields as to areas of continuing R & D concern for research program planning or review in these areas.
