It is an accident that digital computers are organized like desk calculators--with somewhat worse luck we might have taken the Turing machine as our model. And someone would have been unenlightened enough to prove that, under certain (actually untrue) assumptions, it made no difference. All general purpose machines can compute the same functions, given sufficient time.

Considerable progress has been made in large scale integration technology during the past year. Many of the goals, which were theoretical assumptions last year, are now well along the way to reality. Accomplishments range from basic materials processing improvements to systems architecture innovations. While this paper will concentrate on large scale integration technology achievements, we shall also focus some attention on progress in significant related areas.

LACONIQ was designed to give several users who are not necessarily familiar with programming the apparently exclusive on-line use of a small computer for processing large information files. Processing of the data may include manipulations such as retrieval, updating, or the deletion or creation of records, documents, files, etc. Thus, LACONIQ is general-purpose in the sense that many types of information files may be processed, but is special-purpose in the sense that scientific computations on-line are not necessarily intended to be practical.

The modern clinical laboratory should employ automation wherever it is applicable in a continuing effort to meet the demand for ever-increasing amounts of analytical information. The laboratory must also keep pace with the latest fruits of medical research which must be added to the clinical diagnostic armamentarium. This laboratory information explosion imposes great demands upon the laboratory staff. Little hope exists for expanding the staff to meet all these demands. Instead, more efficient use must be made of trained personnel. This can best be obtained by automation of clinical test procedures and automation of the accompanying paper work.

During the past few years there has been a great increase in the use of packaged statistical programs. These programs are prepared in a general form. For example, a regression program will allow the user to specify: the number of variables being introduced as a data set the number of cases the choice from this data set of the dependent variable the choice of some subset of the input variables to be the independent variables the type of input (cards vs. tapes, etc.) the transformation of any variable in the data set the construction of new variables for some stated function of the input variables the stepwise computation of regression function the priority with which variables may be considered for introduction into the regression equation the plotting of residuals vs. various input variables.

The need has been recognized for a computer-driven generator which is capable of drawing complex curves without imposing a great burden on the central computer. It has been shown that analog and hybrid techniques offer promise of lifting some of this computational and storage load. Past approaches using these techniques have been limited in speed and in kinds of curves drawn. Roberts has proposed a hybrid analog-digital generator based on homogeneous coordinate mathematics. Such a generator has been designed and built using the wideband multiplying decoder as its basic component.
