Roberts, John R. – 1976
This paper discusses the present situation regarding national data bases (particularly, ERIC, EDSTAT II, and NEDL) in higher education. Topics include availability of data, methods of retrieval, and uses made of the retrieved data. Also discussed are trends which will greatly enhance the uses of data bases, including: (1) a computerized cataloging…

Stifle, Jack; And Others – 1972
A low cost communications network has been designed for use in the PLATO IV computer-assisted instruction system. Over 1,000 remote computer graphic terminals each requiring a 1200 bps channel are to be connected to one centrally located computer. Digital data are distributed to these terminals using standard commercial cable television (CATV)…

Sherwood, Bruce Arne; Stifle, Jack – 1975
The PLATO IV computer-based educational system contains its own communications hardware and software for operating plasma-panel graphics terminals. Key echoing is performed by the central processing unit: every key pressed at a terminal passes through the entire system before anything appears on the terminal's screen. Each terminal is guaranteed…

Sheehan, Bernard S.; McMinn, William B. – 1981
Technological advances in computers and telecommunications that have significantly changed higher education are analyzed within a framework that associates technologies, applications, and aspects of institutions that are affected. Two further frameworks, one for information systems suggested by decision support systems study and one which is a map…
