Technical papers and reports, Series 1, 1957-1983

Series Scope and Content

This series contains technical papers and reports that document programming languages and the development of computer automation and word processing from 1957 through 1983. A large portion of this series consists of reports about macros, compilers, and the development and syntax of programming languages. There are also reports on specific languages, including Fortran, LISP, JOVIAL, SPL, Pascal, PL/I, ALGOL, and NELIAC. A smaller portion of the collection includes papers about new computing technologies and documents containing computer industry employment data. Some correspondence is interfiled among the papers. This series is arranged alphabetically by folder title.
