First Edition. Original Wraps. "Wilkes s first paper on computer programming." [OOC 1021] Entire issue, subject article at pp. 217-220. "Wilkes s first paper on computer programming is notable for having been submitted for publication . . . three months before EDSAC was officially operating. It confirms that the method of programming the machine had to be worked out while the machine was in development. A good deal has been written about the design and construction of high-speed automatic calculating machines, but little has been said about the detailed steps which are necessary to prepare a problem for the machine and to obtain a solution - a process which is usually referred to as "programming" (p. 127). Wilkes made special reference to EDSAC s programming system, describing its library of subroutines, methods of instruction modification and loading." [OOC 1021] A handsome copy of this scarce issue. Minor shelf/edge wear, hint of toning at spine, else tight, bright, and unmarred. Printed blue paper wraps. 4to. 177-224pp plus adverts. Illus. (b/w plates). Codice articolo 11054
