For several years the author has been concerned with time series data reduction of guided missile data derived from tracking, telemetry and static test instrumentation. The data, which is acquired from many sources and comes …

A variation of the polyphase merge technique of sorting is described which permits one tape at a time to be rewound while the merge is continued on the remaining tapes. The result is the overlapping of a major portion of the

A previously proposed computer method for constructing timetables, based on an iteration involving Boolean matrices, is described. In limited tests the method has successfully produced timetables on every trial. References are …

A more efficient method of using tree structures is proposed, which utilizes both plus and minus branches in the search path. Very significant gains result when the search key includes alphabetic characters.

Computer programs for generating a minimum-redundancy exhaustive prefix encoding are described. One program generates a Huffman frequency tree, another determines the structure functions of an encoding, and a third program assigns …

It is easy to program the basic transformation required for a perspective drawing. This fact plus the advent of high speed microfilm printers such as the General Dynamics Electronics S-C 4020 makes possible perspective movies …

The method described assumes that a word which cannot be found in a dictionary has at most one error, which might be a wrong, missing or extra letter or a single transposition. The unidentified input word is compared to the dictionary …

A method of iteration is developed in terms of a function of somewhat arbitrary character. Sufficient conditions are given for convergence of the process, yielding factors of arbitrary degree for polynomials in one variable.

A Fourier series method is described which, when applied to a certain class of parabolic partial differential equations, reduces the problem to a system of ordinary differential equations. An application is given for which the …

Even slowly convergent power series can be rearranged as series in Chebyshev polynomials if appropriate sequence transformations are used in evaluating the coefficients. The method is illustrated by computing the coefficients …
