Publisher: Wadsworth Pub Co (March 1986)

ISBN-13: 978-0534062941
This text introduces students - slowly, carefully and in a step-by-step fashion - to the use of data-structuring techniques in the design and implementation of large programming projects. The author combines a conceptual approach with practical programming assignments using the notion of the abstract data type as the key design principle. After reading Reynolds' book, students will be able to think about data types as abstract objects, develop new conceptual skills to visualize larger programs (especially ones managing complex data structures) and develop good programming habits. Included in this text are numerous large programming projects and every chapter contains a major project; each is thoroughly described, a top-down design is discussed, and the procedure/function of the ultimate Pascal program is explained. Numerous examples and illustrations help students understand difficult concepts. This book should be of interest to degree and diploma students on introductory courses in program design using Pascal.

Originally specified in 1958, Lisp is the second-oldest high-level programming language in widespread use today; only Fortran is older (by one year). Like Fortran, Lisp has changed a great deal since its early days, and a number of dialects have existed over its history

The original copy of P. F. Blackman's 1956 thesis, submitted for the Degree of Ph.D. in Engineering of London University.
This bound book is hand-typed, with hand-drawn diagrams, and black-and-white photographs pasted in. A copy of the thesis summary is provided below:
"Certain important aspects of closed-loop system and network analysis are closely related to complex variable mathematics. Graphical interpretation of such analysis is frequently employed owing to the difficulty of exact analytic work. In particular the 'p-plane' or 'root-locus' method is essentially simple, and affords considerable insight into the problem, but becomes tedious in practice for complicated systems, and several instruments have been devised to reduce the labour.
"It seemd to the author that the application of p-plane principles could be considerably extended if certain operations beyond the scope of existing instruments, particularly manipulation of ept, and summation of real and imaginary components of vector products, could be achieved. These facilities would enable more advanced types of problems to be handled, such as systems containing a pure delay, and transient response by contour integration, and would permit investigation of problems not previously considered.
"This Thesis gives proposals for a Computor to provide these additional facilities. In principle the proposals are that the techniques should be as simple as possible compatible with accuracy to engineering requirements, while facilities provided should be just adequate to eliminate excessive labour from investigations. This leads to a suggested combination of analogue and digital principles.
"An experimental Computor developed from these proposals is described. Vectors are represented by AC voltages, final results being presented as counts on Dekatrons. The Computor is largely relay controlled, and accuracy is of the order 1%-2%.
"The thesis contains 3 sections:-
"Section 1. Outlines the p-plane method, and gives proposals for the Computor. The design of a proposed resistance network analogue of the complex plane is dicussed.
"Section 2. Describes the experimental Computor, and the essential points of interest in the analogue to digital conversion processes. The operation of individual units is outlined, more detailed information being given in an appendix.
"Section 3. Illustrates the varied type of problem that can be handled on the Computor, including some exaples involving time-varying zeros. Alternative applications for the Computor, and modifications resulting from operating experience are discussed."

About the Author
Howard Davies has a First Class Honours degree in Engineering Science and a DPhil from the University of Oxford. From 1964 to 1977, he worked in the Data Handling Division of CERN (European Organization for Nu-clear Research) in Geneva, initially as a Scientific Programmer, later as a Group Leader and Project Manager for CERNnet, CERN’s first general purpose, internal network. Between 1977 and 1993, he was Director of the Computer Unit at the University of Exeter, responsible not only for the provision of computing services to all academic departments within the university but also for the development of services based on the use of JANET (the national research network in the UK) and its successors. During this period, he spent six months sabbatical leave in 1986 as a Visiting Computer Specialist at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, Stanford, California. He acted as (part-time) Director of the Interim COSINE Project Management Unit from 1989 to 1991 and from 1992 to 1994 he was Vice-President of RARE. He was appointed Joint General Manager of DANTE in 1993 and played a prominent role in the implementation across Europe of an increasingly powerful infrastructure to support network-based services. He retired at the end of 2001 having seen the introduction into service of the GÉANT network.
Beatrice Bressan is responsible for the outreach of the TOTEM experiment at CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research), Geneva, and is also a science writer. She has more than ten years of experience in the field of scientific and technological communication with extensive experience in journalism, media publishing and public relations. She is a member of the European Union of Science Journalists' Associations (EUSJA). After her university studies in mathematical physics and science communication, she completed her PhD research and carried out a postdoctoral fellowship on knowledge management and knowledge transfer inside CERN for the Department of Physical Sciences at Helsinki University. She has worked with-in the Technology Transfer Group at CERN, taking care of the production of promotional material, at SIB (Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics) as Head of Communications, and at the Department of Physics at Geneva University, being responsible for their communications. Through her work, she aims to give a better understanding of complex scientific and technological topics for politicians, industrialists and the general public.

PICK Handbook: Every Manager's Guide to the PICK Operating System (Spiral-bound)

The Pick operating system (often called just "the Pick system" or simply "Pick") is a demand-paged, multiuser, virtual memory, time-sharing operating system based around a unique "multivalued" database. It is used primarily for business data processing. Although it started on a variety of minicomputers, the system and various implementations eventually spread to a large variety of microcomputers and mainframe computers, and is still in use today.
The Pick database is a 'hash-file' data management system. A hash-file system is a collection of dynamic associative arrays which are organized altogether and linked and controlled using associative files as a database management system. Being hash-file oriented, Pick provides efficiency in data access time in many cases. All data structures in Pick are hash-files (at the lowest level) meaning records are stored as associated couplets of a primary key to a set of values.
Pick was originally implemented as the Generalized Information Retrieval Language System (GIRLS) on an IBM System/360 in 1965 by Don Nelson and Dick Pick at TRW for use by the U.S. Army to control the inventory of Cheyenne helicopter parts. Pick was subsequently commercially released in 1973 by Microdata (and their British distributor CMC) as the Reality Operating System now supplied by Northgate Information Solutions.

Amazon.co.uk Review
Robert X. Cringely manages to capture the contradictions and everyday insanity of computer industry empire building, while at the same time chipping away sardonically at the PR campaigns that have built up some very common business people into the household gods of geekdom. Despite some chuckles at the expense of all things nerdy, white and male in the computer industry, Cringely somehow manages to balance the humour with a genuine appreciation of both the technical and strategic accomplishments of these industry luminaries. Whether you're a hard-boiled Silicon Valley marketing exec fishing for an IPO or just a plain old reader with an interest in business history and anecdotal storytelling, there's something to enjoy here.
In his new conclusion, Cringely looks at the likely near-future of the PC industry, arguing that most of the major companies are facing a need to dramatically reformulate their mission in the light of engineering developments already in the works. He offers a new paradigm for the development of the industry as it moves from its early "start up" phase into a more mature, more competitive era. --Jake Bond
Product Description
This work looks at the business of computing in the US, as computer science, as a business, and as a collection of extraordinary and eccentric characters. After automobiles, energy production, and illegal drugs, personal computers are one of the largest manufacturing industries in the world, and one of the great success stories for American business. This book is linked to a Channel 4 television series entitled "The Triumph of the Nerds".

Advanced Spectrum Machine Language
This book is a collection of ready-made machine language routines that show how to archieve spectacular effects on the Spectrum. Most of the routines are aimed at creating visual displays that are at the frontiers of Spectrum's capabilities. The routines include features that have never been published before, such as: Full Screen Horizon ! Lets you change the colour of the border and screen at any point, and move this horizon at will ! Interrupts Driven Sprite Animation ! Animate objects with perfectly flicker-free movement by pixels ! High Resolution Colour ! Create an area on the Spectrum with eight times the normal Spectrum's Colour Resolution! Create images over all of the screen area, including all regions of the border !
This book is for programmers with some experience in machine language programming. All the routines are listed in labelled assembly language and the techniques and principles involved are fully explained. Other routines included in this book are PRINT, PLOTTING, DRAWNING and KEYBOARD SCAN. The routines are all of professional quality and do no involve any calls to the ROM. This means that the speed of your machine language programs can be dramatically increased using these routines.

AIX for Breakfast: A Guide for Programmers and System Administrators: Phillip Houtz
ISBN: 0133996840 / 0-13-399684-0
by Phillip Hout
Prentice-Hall 1996
Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis: IBM's AIX is no longer just another flavor of UNIX. With the advent of the POWER PC architecture, IBM RISC computers are finding their way into most organizations. Most of these use AIX for their operating system. This means a lot of people have suddenly become AIX system administrators. Whether your background is UNIX, DOS, or something else, AIX for Breakfast provides everything you'll need to know to handle AIX system administration and programming. By orienting you to the AIX paradigm first, you'll learn from the inside out, focusing on two major areas: customization and system configuration. You'll start by setting up user accounts and shells, then learn to tailor them to individual needs. Choose a GUI interface; learn to customize X Windows, Motif, and X Desktop to fine tune your GUI. Explanations, examples, and diskette samples will take you from the initial file manipulations needed for any user up to complete customization of your organization's working environment.
As you proceed, you'll learn tips for AIX's InfoExplorer to find advanced help and resolve error messages. AIX's most innovative feature is the System Management Interface Tool (SMIT). AIX for Breakfast examines the SMIT menu items one by one, with many tips and insights along the way. SMIT can make software installation a snap. You can also add and configure peripheral devices, both physical and virtual, easily. A special chapter is devoted to the configuration of "unsupported" or third-party printers. You'll even be able to explore the Internet. Using SMIT to configure network services, like TCP/IP, will get you out surfing the Internet in no time. SMIT also helps with error reporting, performance tuning, andmaintenance of system parameters.
File management is covered in the chapter devoted to LVM, the Logical Volume Manager. AIX for Breakfast presents a full discussion of partitions, storage, disk mirroring, and backup and recovery. This includes a detailed description of creating bootable backups and operating system re-installation. For administrators who must convert from AIX version 3.2 to AIX 4.1, or who must administer both, an entire chapter documents the changes brought by AIX 4. The enclosed diskette offers practical sample user file customizations, sample scripts, and performance monitoring software.

Hamish Carmichael has had a very happy thought in taking the initiative to collect anecdotes and recollections from the people of ICL, and so to edit and produce this Anthology.
Those of us who were and who still are privileged to work in the most exciting and significant industry so far created by the human race will recall that our colleagues came together from BTM, Powers Samas, and the computer activities of GEC, EMI, Ferranti, English Electric, LEO, Elliotts, Singer and other companies. The strategy of consolidating all the parts making up ICT was the work of Cecil Mead. The creation of ICL was - I suppose fairly - the desire of Harold Wilson’s government. - Arthur Humphreys.
Chapter 6 presents an anthology of quotations about LEO, mainly from LEO Computers personnel.

"The aim of this book is to teach you to program the Amstrad PC1512 and PC1640 computers in Locomotive BASIC 2. It assumes no prior knowledge of computers or programming, and it is hoped it will show that BASIC programming is not nearly as difficult as it might appear at first sight, and can be both interesting and enjoyable."

"This introduction to computer graphics is an adaptation of 'Computer Graphics: Principles and Practice, second edition', which remains the most comprehensive and authorative work in the field. While retaining the currency and accuracy of the larger book, this abbreviated version focuses on topics essential for all beginners in computer graphics and provides expanded explanations for readers with less technical background. Worked examples have been added to illustrate concepts and techniques, and program code has been written in the C code to enhance the books usefulness."

'An Introduction to Operating Systems, Revised First Edition, Including Case Studies in Unix, Vax, CP/M, MVS, VM, with concurrent Programming in Ada'
Amazon Review:
There are some good things to say about this book. It's written in clear, plain language, with helpful illustrations and code examples. Key terms are highlighted and defined concisely.
Unfortunately there are many more bad things to say about it.
Let's face it, this subject is about as exciting as counting freckles. The baroque ugliness of the book's design, intended to suggest in appearance an old notebook of Leonardo da Vinci, has already been mentioned by other reviewers. It certainly doesn't make reading easier.
The authors have tried to liven things up by including anecdotes, biographical sketches, mini-case studies, and other sidebar material. It's a good-hearted but wrong-headed effort. None of this material is necessary, and it only serves to make a long story longer. The book is over 1200 pages long. The last thing a college student needs in his backpack is more weight to carry around all day. And who's actually going to read this stuff? (Hmm, let's see... what to do with my study time? fix my data structures code? perpare for my Calc exam? no, I think I'll read some speculation about the origin of the word "glitch".)
It isn't just the sidebar fluff that pads the book's length. A typical chapter finishes up with a two-page summary, four pages of glossary (unnecessary if you've read the chapter, where the terms are already defined and set in colored type), four pages of exercises , and four pages of bibliography. Yes, a bibliography is appended to each chapter. I am not talking a simple "suggested for further reading". I am talking works cited, 100 or more per chapter. In one case the bib is 13 pages long, with over 400 citations. Who is this for? How many undergraduate students are going to pursue these references?
The makers of this book have employed some crafty strategies to pad their work. Likely to go unnoticed is the redundant fifty-page glossary at the very end of the book, in case you missed the ones at the end of each chapter. The book's table of contents is unnecessarily detailed, with an entry for chapter headings, subdivisions, sub-subdivisions, as well as each sidebar. Next comes a list of every illustration and code example. In case you need to find one fast, or something. There follows a twenty-page preface which details the book's features, and includes a "Tour of the Book", an overview of the eight parts and 21 chapters of the book. The book's actual text doesn't get started until 66 pages in.
I'm guessing this sort of content goes over well with textbook committees, because it means they don't have to read the book to get a sense of its content. I can imagine no other reason to include it unless it is to drive up the price of the book.

This book provides 'A Short History of Analogue Computers, Hybrid Computers and their Application, with emphasis on the UK.' It was written by Michael G Brown after visits to the Centre for Computing History and the National Museum of Computing. Brown considered analogue computing to be underrepresented at both sites and wrote this book to begin rectifying the issue.

Antipatterns are an emerging and controversial new area in the patterns community. Where design patterns identify different types of procedures, designs, or code that worked in object-oriented projects, antipatterns target those common mistakes, defects, errors, or difficult people that can sink object-oriented projects and systems. Configuration Management (CM) is managing the evolution of a software project - managing the revisions or changes to the product after it is first released. This phase is important in a product's ongoing life-cycle because CM helps to ensure that all improvements are implemented in a timely and accurate fashion. In addition, CM ensures that product testing occurs and is accurately documented so that the test findings can be incorporated into improving the design of the product with the next version. This book continues where the first book on antipatterns by this author team left off. In the first book, they focused on the areas of design, architecture, and management, in other words - people issues. With this book, they focus on the area of Configuration Management and document over 20 antipatterns and ten design patterns that exist during this stage of a product's development.

Although the BASIC language provided on the Amstrad machines is of an exceptionally high standard, there are obvious advantages, both in speed and memory economy, to be gained by the addition of machine code subroutines.
This book is intended to provide a grounding in Amstrad machine code programming. Although particular emphasis is given to the more commonly used Z80 instructions, the full instruction set is presented in an appendix, specially designed for quick reference.
The text is supplemented by numerous practical examples including several full length listings. These are laid out in standard assembly format, but a BASIC program is provided for direct loading of machine code bytes to help those readers who have not yet obtained an assembler.

This is a book for the amateur astronomer who wishes to carry out astronomical calculations using a personal computer with the minimum of fuss. It is not specific to any make of machine, neither are the programmes confined to specific calculations, Rather, it presents a collection of twenty-six subroutines, written in a portable version of BASIC, which can be mixed and matched according to personal requirements. Furthermore, the user need only have a broad understanding of the problem; the subroutines themselves take care of the details. For example, the routines can be used to calculate the time of rising of any of the planets in any part of the world at any time in the future or past; or they may be used to find the circumstances of the next solar eclipse visible from a particular place. Almost every problem likely to be encountered by the amateur astronomer can be solved by a suitable combination of the routines given here.

This book is much more informative than *The Official Book of Leisure Suit Larry*. It doesn't give hints, it tells you exactly what to do. Deciphering hints is fun, but not when you're trying to relax on your summer vacation by playing what you thought would be an easy computer game. It also includes Larry's story of how be became to be the leisure suit wearing babe magnet god that he is. If you love Leisure Suit Larry, you'll love this book.

Platform:

We wrote this book with two principal goals in mind. First, we felt it important to present the elements of BASIC so that meaningful computer programs could be written at the earliest possible time. We adhere to the notion that one learns by doing. As a result, problem solving is emphasized from the beginning, and the various aspects of the BASIC language are introduced only as needed. Our second goal was to write a book that would serve as a general introduction to computer programming, not just to a programming language. Simply describing a variety of computer applications and ways to go about writing BASIC programs for these applications does not constitute an introduction to programming. What is required is a consideration of the entire programming process. The approach we have taken toward this objective is to introduce programming principles only as they can be understood and appreciated in the context of the applications being considered. For example, a beginner can easily appreciate the necessity of choosing variable names and determining how they are related. Hence, this step is introduced very early, even though it will later be found that this is one of the last steps normally taken by a programmer. On the other hand, the value of modularization is not so easily grasped in the context of the straightforward programming problems first encountered. As natural as modularization may appear to an experienced programmer, a beginner must "see" its usefulness before being convinced of its value. Therefore, this programming principle is not introduced until much later in the book.
Throughout the text we have attempted to conform to the most common BASIC usage. BASIC is not a static language. It seems that each new BASIC implementation contains what the designers consider to be "improvements." Although the many forms that BASIC assumes on different systems may please Proteus, they do nothing for the poor programmer. To help resolve this dilemma, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) prepared a document, dated December 1, 1976, entitled "Proposed American National Standard for Minimal BASIC." In all but two instances, which are clearly identified, our presentation of minimal BASIC conforms to the ANSI standard.

An Expert System is, simply, computer software that encapsulates some area of human expertise. It can help a doctor to diagnose illnesses, a chemist to deduce chemical structures or help to choose the best place to drill for oil or precious metals. Up to now this has been the province of big computers, bigger programs, and exotic languages. But this book brings the important topic down to earth with easy explanations and practical BASIC programs that you can key in immediately on your personal computer.

Amazon.co.uk Review
So where do you want to go tomorrow? That's the question Bill Gates tries to answer in Business @ the Speed of Thought. Gates offers a 12-step programme for companies wanting to do business in the next millennium. The book's premise: Thanks to technology, the speed of business is accelerating at an ever-increasing rate and to survive, it must develop an infrastructure--a "digital nervous system"--that allows for the unfettered movement of information inside a company. Gates writes: "The most meaningful way to differentiate your company from your competition ... is to do an outstanding job with information. How you gather, manage and use information will determine whether you win or lose."
The book is peppered with examples of companies that have already successfully engineered information networks to manage inventory, sales, and customer relationships better. The examples run from Coca-Cola's ability to download sales data from vending machines to Microsoft's own internal practices, such as its reliance on e-mail for company-wide communication and the conversion of most paper processes to digital ones (an assertion that seems somewhat at odds with the now-infamous "by hand on sheets of paper" method of tracking profits that was revealed during Microsoft's antitrust trial).
Product Description
Most companies have a sizeable investment in technology but are realising only 20% of its potential benefit. BUSINESS @ THE SPEED OF THOUGHT introduces the concept of the digital nervous system which unites all systems and processes under one common infrastructure, allowing companies to make quantum leaps in efficiency, growth and profit. Using detailed tours of Microsoft and other major corporations, Gates demonstrates how integrated technology can transform any business by energizing its three major elements: customer/partner relationships, employees and process, and offers practical suggestions on how this can be achieved.

Amazon review:
For programming enthusiasts, this work is a gold mine. It describes the all-important techniques for successful programming. The following proverbs are described generously
throughout the book:
o Don't panic
o Problem definition is important
o Document early and continuously
o Plan and think first-code later
o Proceed top/down
o Code logically
o Use PERFORM and CALL verbs
o Comment effectively and use mnemonic words
o Get the syntax correct
o Plan for customizations
o Desk check your work
o Have someone else read your work
o Don't be afraid to start over or to make a major customization
or improvement
Model programs depict the IDENTIFICATION DIVISION, ENVIRONMENT DIVISION, DATA DIVISION, FILE SECTIONS, WORKING-STORAGE SECTIONS , REPORT SECTIONS AND PROCEDURE SECTIONS
The author shows how to isolate key program messages in the data division and the wisdom of avoiding non-standard COBOL features.
An example of top/down programming follows:
describe input files
if either input file is missing or is labelled incorrectly
then let the operating system generate an error message
else if either input file is empty
then write appropriate message to system console
else prepare for payroll and report generation
generate payroll and report
clean up after generation
end
The author asks that programmers write simple code that is easy to read, interpret and re-create if the need arises. In addition. it is important to avoid nonstandard features.
This book has a wealth of programming standards information which
will prove invaluable in the field. The book is well worth the money.

This introduction to compilers is the direct descendant of the well-known book by Aho and Ullman, Principles of Compiler Design. The authors present updated coverage of compilers based on research and techniques that have been developed in the field over the past few years. The book provides a thorough introduction to compiler design and covers topics such as context-free grammars, fine state machines, and syntax-directed translation
Amazon Review:
During each compiler stage (lexical analysis, syntax analysis, translation, type checking, translation, code generation, and code optimization) multiple methods, strategies, and algorithms are presented. This comprehensive book examines items that are unique to the various languages presented (Fortran, C, and Pascal); there are even sections on dealing with estimation of types (10.12) and symbolic debugging of optimized code (10.13). Wow! The exercises are thorough, challenging, and thought provoking. Examples are interleaved with the discussion and algorithms. There is an excellent set of historical and bibliographic information at the end of each chapter. The use of automated tools such as lex, yacc, and compiler-generators is discussed throughout the text. This is an advanced book, however a good understanding of compilers can be obtained without understanding the details of every algorithm.

by Technical Education and Management Inc. (Author)
Hardcover: 224 pages

ASIN: B0016N4HMC
Computer Basics is the final culmination of a comprehensive course originally prepared for the US Navy at a cost of over $250,000 (quite a sum in the 60s). The course was designed to train naval electronics technicians. Written to be easily understood, and with a special chapter by G Oliver for the English reader, it assumes no prior knowledge of computer systems, though it does require some background in basic electronics theory and a working knowledge of trigonometry and algebra. A real slice of technological history.

This book, published in 1982, explains how computers work from the very basics to much more advanced topics. It begins by explaining when numbers and counting first became vital for human civilisation - when agriculture was first developed - before moving on to the computer's ability to manage these numbers. By the end of the book, specific languages and components are discussed.

Amazon Review:
It's amazing how much this book manages to pack into its three-hundred-odd pages, yet it is definitely showing its age.
Most of the 'real world' examples - systems "capable of between one and ten million operations per second" and their software - date to the late 1970s or early 1980s. Digital logic is covered and a simple microprogrammed CPU is worked through as a (good) example but it neglects the fact that, in the last fifteen years, CPU architectures have moved completely away from microcode, passing through RISC and onwards to VLIW. There is obviously no mention of the modern internet as the book pre-dates the WWW. GUIs - or, in fact, any user interfaces less complex than SQL - are another notable omission.
The fundamentals of algorithms and CS are, of course, timeless and this book is an average - though highly compact - introduction to the subject. For those with more time available, I'd recommend 'Foundations of Computer Science' by Aho/Ullman and Knuth's 'The Art of Computer Programming' contains far more detailed coverage of algorithms. Of course, no matter what you choose, this book will still be required reading for the CompSci course at Cambridge...
