SEAC Memory Parity Checker
No full textThis memory checking unit was built in 1952 by Russell A. Kirsch and colleagues for the Standards Electric Automatic Computer (SEAC), a computer built and operated by the National Bureau of Standards from 1950-1964. The unit was intended to check for possible errors introduced by the acoustic memory used in the SEAC. The checking circuitry was built to have a margin of reliability considerably greater than that of the circuits being checked. The memory check functioned by comparing the data that entered the acoustic memory with the same data as it exited the memory. The memory parity checker contained electrical delay lines, germanium diodes wired into vacuum tube bases, and the 6AN5 vacuum tube, which was the last form of vacuum tube used in computers before being replaced by transistors.22 x 47 x 30 c

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
