A stereographic display terminal has been produced using the raster display (BRAD) recently developed at Brookhaven. The system uses a rotating refresh memory to feed standard television monitors.
To produce a stereographic display …

The solution of the nonlinear differential equation
Y″ =
F(
x, Y, Y′) with two-point boundary conditions is approximated by a quintic or cubic spline function
y(
x). The method is well suited to nonuniform mesh size and dynamic …

The running time of programs in a paging machine generally increases as the store in which programs are constrained to run decreases. Experiment, however, have revealed cases in which the reverse is true: a decrease in the size …
