Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This annual report details the final year of the Computation and Data Processing Branch (CDPB), an organization at the forefront of introducing computers into biomedical sciences. This book describes CDPB's progress in converting the NIH's central computing responsibilities to the new IBM 360 multi-machine configuration, which replaced the two previous Honeywell 800 computers. Other major highlights of the year include the development of time-sharing technology, which enables multiple users to run jobs simultaneously, as well as enhancements to the vendor-supplied operating system to make it more reliable, efficient, and responsive to NIH's diverse computing needs. The report delineates the programming tools developed for scientists and health professionals, such as Tablemaker II, the query system, and the DCRT Program Library. The organizational shifts and accomplishments of CDPB and its eventual consolidation into the Division of Computer Research and Technology are explored to provide insight into the development of computing at NIH.
