The Computing Research Board's 1986-87 Taulbee Survey includes the latest statistics on production and employment of Ph.D.'s and faculty in computer science and engineering. For the first time, departments offering Ph.D.'s in computer engineering are also included.
Imbalance between growth and funding in academic computing science: two trends c
This report is endorsed by the Computer Science Board and prepared by the board's Committee on Research Funding in Computer Science.
The ALCOR Illinois 7090/7094 post mortem dump
A dump technique for programs written in ALGOL 60 is described. This technique provides an intelligible analysis of an unsuccessful computation process in terms of the original source program.
Some techniques used in the ALCOR ILLINOIS 7090
An ALGOL compiler has been written by the ALCOR group for the IBM 7090. Some little known but significant techniques in compiler writing, together with organizational details of this compiler, are described. Timing estimates and an indication of compiler requirements are also given.
