The picture below shows a larger view of all (3) 1956 Association For Computing Machinery 11th Annual National Meeting Booklets & Schedule in this lot. The two booklets are indentical with the front of one and the back of the other being shown. The pink schedule has a name filled in “HENRY FRACHTMAN of M.I.T” (Massachusetts Institute of Technology). The 11th Annual National Meeting took place from August 27, 28, & 29 of 1956 at the University of California in Los Angeles. The pink card has the schedule, but the booklet goes into the schedule in detail with Speakers, descriptions, and explanations of events. There is a map inside and one on the back cover. All three of these for one price! To judge the sizes the booklets each measure about 3-7/8'' x 8-1/2''. They appear to be in mint condition except for the name written on the schedule as pictured. There are many detailed topic that were covered including all of the following: UNCOMMON USES FOR COMMON DIGITAL COMPUTERS DATA PROBLEMS OF A GROCERY CHAIN SOME LOGISTICS APPLICATIONS AN ALGORITHM TO THE METHOD OF CURVE FITTING BY THE PROCESS OF LEAST SQUARES SOME RULES FOR REDUCING CALCULATE TIME AND CONSERVATION OF STORAGE SPACE ON A CHEBYCHEFE FITTING CRITERION ON RATIONAL FUNCTION APPROXIMATIONS TO THE EXPONENTIAL FUNCTION WITH APPLICATION TO THE PRACTICAL SOLUTION OF LINEAR DIFFERENTIAL DIFFERENCE EQUATIONS WITH CONSTANT COEFFICIENTS ON THE METHOD OF MINIMUM (OR “BEST”) APPROXIMATION AND THE METHOD OF LEAST NTH POWERS ON BERNOULLI’S METHOD FOR SOLVING ALGEBRAIC EQUATIONS THE DOWNHILL METHOD OF SOLVING A POLYNOMIAL EQUATIONS ON THE DESIGN OF BUSINESS SYSTEMS FOR COMPUTERS TECHNICAL MARKET ANALYSIS USING A COMPUTER SMALL BUSINESS APPLICATIONS USING A UNIVAC COMPUTING CENTER MATHEMATICAL MODELS OF THE LOGICAL STRUCTURE OF DIGITAL COMPUTERS SPEED INDEPENDENT ASYNCHRONOUS SWITCHING CIRCUITS ESTIMATING THE TRUNCATION ERROR WITH A MODIFIED RUNGE KUTTA METHOD ON THE OVER ALL STABILITY AND CONVERGENCE OF SINGLE STEP INTEGRATION SCEMES FOR ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS GENERATED ERROR IN THE SOLUTION OF CERTAIN LINEAR DIFFERENCE EQUATIONS EVALUATION OF INCOMPLETE ELLIPTIC INTEGRALS BY GAUSSIAN INTEGRATION PROGRAMMING OF THE METHOD OF CHARACTERISTICS FOR AXISYMMETRIC FLOW A METHOD OF COMPUTING SHOCK WAVES A VARIATIONAL APPROXIMATION FOR STURM LIOUVILLE PROBLEMS PROGRAMMING A COMPUTER TO PLAY GAMES MUSICAL COMPOSITION WITH A DIGITAL COMPUTER THE POTENTIALITIES OF A HIGH CAPACITY STORE FOR MACHINE TRANSLATION SIMULATION TECHNIQUES FOR THE TEST AND EVALUATION OF REAL TIME COMPUTER PROGRAMS DATA RECORDING IN REAL TIME CONTROL SYSTEMS A SYSTEM FOR GENERAL PURPOSE ANALOG DIGITAL COMPUTATION SAMPLING FREQUENCY OF DIGITAL SERVOMECHANISMS PROGRESS IN SIMULATION OF VALVE TRAIN DYNANICS SERVOMULTIPLIER ERROR STUDY THE REFUGE RELAY FUNCTION GENERATOR A TRANSISTOR OPERATIONAL D.
