A few of the essential papers include: Claude Shannon, "Computers and Automata" (Origins of Cyberspace #885) --- contains a brief review of developments in the field of automata and non-numerical computation Claude Shannon and Moore, "Machine aid for switching circuit design" (Origins of Cyberspace #886) --- describes the first "verification" machine, built at Bell Labs and called the" relay circuit analyzer." Grace Hopper and John Mauchly, "Influence of programming technique on the design of computers" (Origins of Cyberspace #664) --- contains a discussion of how advances in programming techniques could influence the design of future computers. This article references the UNIVAC I. Huskey, Ambrose, and Yowell, "The SWAC design features and operating experience" (Origins of Cyberspace #672) --- contains a general description of the functional characteristics of the SWAC computer, including references to electrostatic and magnetic drum memories. Buchholz, "The system design of the IBM Type 701 computer" (Origins of Cyberspace #508) --- describes the overall system design of IBM's first electronic digital computer And many more period articles. 8¼" - 11".
