A computer system, named CORA, has been devised for coding chemical structures by fragmentation elements. It has been used to encode Markush formulas in patents according to the Ring codes used in the Ringdoc and Pestdoc services and results in an easy, speedy, reliable and inexpensive method.

The set reduction algorithm is based on set theory and Boolean algebra rather than the graph-theoretic approach. Time trials with a small file of organic chemical structures indicate that the algorithm can be economically used for substructure (or complete structure) sequential searches on a file containing 30,000-50,000 computer-coded structures.…

This is the report of a study accomplished in two separate parts: (1) Part I dealt with evaluation of an existing course of instruction in human relations at The Moraine Park Technical Institute, and (2) Part II dealt with the development of a proposed course of instruction in human relations for the technical institute.

Information and documentation have constituted one of the more fruitful fields for early applications of computer typesetting. This review pays particular attention to the reasons this is so, and to some of the major systems now in operation. (31 references) (Author/NH)

Brigham Young University has been selected by the National Science Foundation to see if a new computer assisted instruction (CAI) system can help to alleviate some of higher education's financial problems. (Author/PG)

Describes a computerized system for grading examinations for large class sections. The system, developed and tested over a period of three years, consists of three main program components: (1) SUPERGRADER III grades and analyzes each examination, (2) PARTY reorganizes punched card input to SUPERGRADER III if necessary, and (3) SUPERSCORER III…

Examines 2 new computer assisted instructional systems. (HS)

Surveys various aspects of the development of computational techniques to study Greek and Latin. (MB)

Study investigates applicability to educational planning by developing a computerized interview capable of implementation by schools possessing a medium sized third generation computer. Results indicate that computers can relieve counselors of essentially clerical chores so they can devote more time to intensive student counseling. Sample…

Three methods of studying motion are described. A wind tunnel is utilized in demonstrating flutter. Computer graphics with an oscilloscope are used to investigate the natural modes of vibration and to track the simulated motion of missiles. (TS)

The questions of when and how best to computerize the catalog of a large research library, and how to improve an existing conventional catalog, motivated a study of the utilization of the main catalog of the Yale University Library. The study was designed to provide a representative sample of catalog use. (7 references) (Author/NH)
