Books, Computers, ,and the Great Future

One way of thinking of a computer is to think of it as a book on almost any subject whenever you want to read it - kind of book. far easier and cheaper than to obtain access to a computer Output. A book (for example, in Russian) contains and communicate with it. Third, convenience: You can in forma tion which you can read, provided you know the take what the book says into your own mind at your own spoken language (Russian), the alphabet (of Russian), and time at your own speed: if you want to hurry and skip, you can pronounce the alphabetic signs (in context) which spell can; if you want to read it over and over until you know it the designated words. In the same way a computer contains by heart, you can; if you want to read it on a commuting information which can be output usefully, provided you train in the morning, you can. In a book you can know the set of operations by means of which the communicate with another mind, not at his speed or computer will produce the information you desire. convenience but at your own. Fourth, quality: In books, Input. You can put information into a book. For a the greatest men who have ever lived, the best experts, the simple example, you can make entries in your date book, or most informed authorities, can offer you answers for your put notes into a notebook, or even write a manuscript questions, instruction in the subjects you are most which a publisher will print as a book. In the same way, concerned with, guidance in the problems that rack your you can put information into a computer - give it data and spirit, and far more. Fifth, vicarious experience: You and I programming by means of which later you can get useful will probably never climb Mt.

You can calculate with a book. Books are content and ideas of computer programs and data bases, the full of tables of results - for many varieties of knowledge they contain, and the power to answer questions combinations of many kinds of data. In this way they which they express. effectively provide many calculations that exactly fit the Which is more important - the manufacture of books or requirements. A great many more calculations than those the content of books? - the manufacture of computers or stored in books can be done by a man with a book of the content of computers? The answers are obvious. factors in his pocket and some rules for estimating stored in his brain. In this way the man may be ready to inspect, and So we can confidently predict that the computer field in approve or disapprove, all kinds of calculated results. the future will be something like an automatic social mind However, a computer really comes into its own when it containing concepts, ideas, programs, systems, and other is a matter of calculating and deciding about more elaborate intellectual constructs by means of which almost all cases than can ever be tabulated in books or decided by knowledge, and records. of experiences of almost all kinds, educated inspection. can be studied, investigated, manipulated, summarized, and Ideas. But when we think of ideas, of knowledge, we communicated to individual human minds. The treasury of think of books. the knowledge of the world will become automated.

This true for many reasons. First, quantity: The amount of development may even contain the solutions to many giant useful information recorded in print is enormously greater problems which human beings of today, with their own than the amount of useful information expressed in all the little abilities, and their even more limited memories, and other ways put together. Any story, epic, adventure, idea, their slowly accessible, passive, storehouses of books called principle, science, philosophy, art, technique, discovery, libraries, cannot be expected to solve. technology, once written down and printed, can be read, studied, and learned from books. Second, accessibility: It is e-~C.~ quite easy and cheap to get or borrow a copy of almost any Editor \

Systems Planning The effectiveness of the service to solve problems and Computing Costs in the U.S. develop application systems provided by EDP functions is On the basis of the 1969 World Computer Census heavily dependent upon the way in which the EDP manager published by Computers and Automation, a conservative views his own role in the business. estimate of annual equipment rental in the United States is Some consider their proper role one which is closely $3 billion. related to the technical computer environment. They con­ Generally accepted rules of thumb indicate a company centrate on the development of highly capable computer may expect to spend one-third of its systems and computer complexes and rely upon the users to ensure the realization expenditures for rental, another one-third in operating costs of economic benefits. The EDP manager with this view is in the computing center (personnel, supplies, power and likely to describe his function as one of supplying better space) and the balance on system development and pro­ informa tion faster. gramming. It appears therefore that at least $9 billion are The other perspective is to view the job as one of solving spent annually in the United States for computers and user problems - problems which can be stated in terms of: related costs. - Too much inventory, - Excessively high cost of operation, or The Burden of Excess Computing Capacity - Inadequate customer service. Personally, I endorse this latter view as the proper role It has long been suspected that our national economy of the EDP manager.

COMPUTERS and AUTOMATION for January, 1971 61 NUMBLES PROBLEM CORNER

NUMBER PUZZLES FOR NIMBLE MINDS Walter Penney, CDP -AND COMPUTERS Pro blem Editor Computers and Automation Neil Macdonald Assistant Editor Computers and Automation PROBLEM 711: CHRYSTAL OR CRYSTAL A "numble" is an arithmetical problem in which: digits "Now, what do you make of that?", asked Harry, have been replaced by capital letters; and there are two pointing to a flow chart on the blackboard. messages, one which can be read right away and a second one in the digit cipher. The problem is to solve for the Chrystal 361, 5 digits. Each capital letter in the arithmetical problem stands for just one digit 0 to 9. A digit may be represented by more than one letter. The second message, which is expressed in numerical digits, is to be translated (using the same key) 8 into letters so that it may be read; but the spelling uses puns or is otherwise irregular, to discourage cryptanalytic methods of deciphering. We invite our readers to send us solutions, together with human programs or computer programs which will produce the solutions. This month's Numble was contributed by: Stuart Freudberg Newton High School Newton, Mass.
