Probleme der Entwicklung programmgesteuerter Rechengeräte und Integrieranlagen
A 51-page German technical report (Aachen, 1953) compiled from seminar lectures given at the Mathematisches Institut Lehrstuhl C during the 1952 summer and 1952/53 winter semesters, edited by Prof. Dr. Hubert Cremer. The three chapters cover: (1) program-controlled computing machines including stored-program concepts, construction problems, and error correction; (2) development of the Integromat analog integration device including the individual electronic integrator, the step-rate generator (Schritttaktgeber), and error analysis; (3) optimal control problems and their mathematical formulation, together with application of the Integromat to solving such problems.
