Introduction to Computer Systems is a book written by International Computers and Tabulators. The first edition of this book was published in 1972. This third edition was published in 1976. It covers basic concepts underlying the operation of computers and their applications. The two ICL ranges of computers (1900 Series and System 4) are used as examles in this book.
From the preface:
'This is the first of a four-part series of lectures devoted to the stored-program or general-purpose digital computer. The topic is one of several presented jointly by the Science Museum and Industry, and directed primarily at sixth-formers.
The series is not concerned either with historical development or with social implications of the computer. Rather it is dedicated to a better understanding of the contemporary computer, its potentialities and limitations, through knowledge of what it does and how it does this. The lid is taken off the 'black box', not just the electronics, but the whole computer system comprising hardware, software, programs, and the user himself (the 'liveware'?). No prior acquaintance with computers is assumed.'
