We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.
ENGINEERING 15 cial publications, and films. It reviews in some detail Nuclear Science Abstracts, the only unclassified journal devoted solely to announcing and abstracting atomic energy scientific and technical literature published throughout the world. The viewer learns also of the various bibliographies that are prepared on specialized subjects and of special literature searches that are provided by the USAEC at a nominal rate. The film details the wealth of information available at 84 domestic and 83 foreign USAEC depository libraries located throughout the world. The availability on microcards of all technical information offered by the USAEC, including that published in more than 30,000 USAEC re- search and development reports, is explained. Also described is the USAEC's sponsorship of a technical book-writing program, the ex- change of technical information with other nations, an active program for translating foreign monographs, publication of quarterly Technical Progress Reviews for the use of industry, the reproduction of engi- neering drawings and related information, and the production and distribution of motion pictures on atomic energy which are designed to serve either professional or general audiences.

Cleared for television. ACCEL is a computer program which designs printed circuit boards and produces the drawings for their construction with the input encoded from an engineer's schematic diagram by a clerk without knowledge of electronics. The outputs of the program are a schematic, parts list, printed circuit negative, assembly drawing, and a hole drilling list. ACCEL is written in Fortran II for the IBM 7090 computer and the drawings are produced on the Stromberg Carlson 4020 cathode ray tube plotter. The film describes the operational aspects of the system, as well as the unusual algorithms used to accomplish the design feat. Two items of major significance are: (1) the "force placement" algorithm for determining component location; and, (2) the modification of Lee's algorithm used for finding the routing paths.
