Gouraud, Henri | A programmer's guide to PDP-10 euler | This manual describes the EULER language as implemented on the DEC PDP-10 computer. EULER is a block-structured language, similar to Algol-60 but simplified by omitting type declarations and by altering the way procedures are defined and called. PDP-10 EULER includes features for list-and array-mani... | EULER language | 1970 |

Watkins, Gary Scott | A real time visible surface algorithm | With the increasing use of computer graphics, a need is growing for a processor capable of displaying solid objects. Environmental simulation and architectural modeling are only two areas that would benefit from such a diplay processor. This dissertation describes an algorithm designed for such a ... | Surface algorithm | 1970 |

Newman, William M. | An experimental display programming language for the PDP-10 computer | An experimental language for display programming, called DIAL, has been developed for the PDP-10 and the UNIVAC 1559 display. It is experimental in the sense that it was originally conceived as a means of testing out some ideas, and the best way to test them seemed to be to produce a language that ... | Display programming; DIAL; Display Algol | 1970 |

Wehrli, Robert | ARCAID: The ARChitects computer graphics AID | ARCAID?The ARChitect's Computer Graphics AID?is one part of a two-part research program at the University of Utah under the direction of David C. Evans. ARCAID is a specification for the organization of computer processes including data and procedures for the use of architects, engineers, and other... | ARCAID | 1970 |

Seror, Denis D. | D.C.P.L. - A distributed control programming language | In this thesis, a computation is considered a system of asynchronously cooperating "independent" programs (coroutines) linked by paths of in formation along which messages are sent. A programming language called DCPL, a Distributed Control Programming Language, in which such computations may be ex... | Distributed control programming language; DCPL | 1970 |

Logan, Nelson Stanley | Master schedule building and the flexibly scheduled school | This paper contains a model of a technique for increasing the quality of educational and instructional opportunity for all students. This model is developed around the flexible or modularly scheduled secondary school. Also included is a procedure containing a computer program, with which the adminis... | Flexible scheduling; Flexibly scheduled school; Modularly scheduled school | 1970 |

Templeton, Frederick E. | Optimal control of a process with discrete and continuous decision variables | The task of dynamic optimization consists of manipulating the inputs to a dynamic system (i.e., one in which the state varies with time) so that the system performs in an advantageous manner. This paper presents a systematic technique for solving the problem of optimally controlling a converter ais... | Dynamic optimization; Decision variables; Converter aisle; Copper smelter | 1970 |

Mahi, Robert | Scheduling multiprogammed computer systems: an analytical approach | In a multiprogrammed computer system, several jobs are using the facilities of the system at the same time. However, a given facility (or resource) is generally only allocated to one user at a time- But, while working, jobs generate requests for some facilities and liberate other facilities; thus, c... | Multiprogrammed computer system | 1970 |

Mahi, Robert | Visible surface algorithms for quadric patches | This paper describes two algorithms which find the visible portions of surfaces in a picture of a cluster of three-dimensional quadric patches. A quadric patch is a portion of quadric surface defined by a quadratic equation and by zero, one or several quadratic inequalities. The picture is cut by pa... | surface algorithms; quadric patches | 1970 |
