A Program Feature for CONVERT
(1966-04-01)A program feature has been constructed for CONVERT, closely modeled after the similar facility found in many versions of LISP. Since it is functional or operational in nature, it has been included as a skeleton form, ...

POLYBRICK: Adventures in the Domain of Parallelepipeds
(1966-05-01)A collection of programs tries to recognize, which one more successfully than its predecessor, 3-dimensional parallelepipeds (solids limited by 6 planes, parallel two-by-two), using as data 2-dimensional idealized projections. ...

PDP-6 LISP
(1966-06-01)This is a mosaic description of PDP-6 LISP, intended for readers familiar with the LISP 1.5 Programmer's Manual or who have used LISP on some other computer. Some of the newer features (e.g. the display) are experimental ...
-
Symbolic Integration
(1966-06-01)A program has been written which is capable of integrating all but two of the problems solved by the Siagle's symbollic integration program SAINT. In contrast to SAINT, it is a purely algorithmic program and it has ...
-
CONVERT
(1966-06-01)A programming language is described which is applicable to problems conveniently described by transformation rules. By this we mean that patterns may be prescribed, each being associated with a skeleton, so that a series ...
-
The Summer Vision Project
(1966-07-01)The summer vision project is an attempt to use our summer workers effectively in the construction of a significant part of a visual system. The particular task was chosen partly because it can be segmented into sub-problems ...

A Step by Step Computer Solution of Three Problems in Non-Numerical Analysis
(1966-07-01)This memo describes the step by step solution of three problems from different fields of applied mathematics. These problems are solved by typing a series of computer commands for the manipulation of symbolic mathematical ...

Modifications to PDP-6 Teletype Logic
(1966-08-01)The existing teletype logic for the PDP-6 has been modified to accommodate up to four additional teletypes. These were added with a minimum of change to the existing logic, and are easily removable by taking out the cable ...

Output to the PDP-6 Calcomp Plotter
(1966-08-01)The plotter on the console of the PDP-6 is currently attached to device number 774, and accepts stepping pulses given under control of a CONO to that device. Its normal mode of operation is to CONO the desired bits on, ...
-
Sides 21
(1966-08-01)SIDES 21 produces a graph consisting of the locations of lines which comprise the sides of either a geometric solid or a plane figure. The representation is in floating point mode, suitable for subsequent processing. The ...
-
Additions to Vision Library
(1966-08-01)Modified LAP: Additions have been made to LAP as described in the PDP-6 write-up.
-
Music Playing on the PDP-6
(1966-08-01)This memo describes a process of converting coded music into auditory stimuli on the PDP-6. Attached is a copy of the original specifications for the coding (a PDP-1 memo by Peter Samson).
-
Figure Boundary Description Routings for the PDP-6sVision Project
(1966-09-01)As a step in the direction of "computer vision," several programs have been written which transform the output of a vidisector into some mathematical descriptions of the boundaries enclosing the objects in the field of ...
-
An Input Macro for TECO
(1966-09-01)A macro has been written for TECO that enables one to insert characters into the buffer as they are typed with the entire current page (if not greater than the display screen"s height in length) always being displayed. ...
-
PILOT: A Step Toward Man-Computer Symbiosis
(1966-09-01)PILOT is a programming system constructed in LISP. It is designed to facilitate the development of programs by easing the familiar sequence: write some code, run the program, make some changes, write some more code, ...
-
ADEPT: A Heuristic Program for Proving Theorems of Group Theory
(1966-09-01)A computer program, named ADEPT (A Distinctly Empirical Prover of Theorems), has been written which proves theorems taken from the abstract theory of groups. Its operation is basically heuristic, incorporating many ...
-
Summer Vision Programs
(1966-10-01)We assume that we are given a square array that describes a scene. The name of the array will be "array." The number of points representing the side length of the array will be called "pts." (I.e., (pts)2 is the total ...
-
Symbolic Integration II
(1966-10-01)In this memo we describe the current state of the integration program originally described in AI Memo 97 (MAC-M-310). Familiarity with Memo 97 is assumed. Some of the algorithms described in that memo have been extended. ...
-
A Primitive Control P Feature
(1966-10-01)A program, some TECO macros, and some small modifications to existing systems software have been written, called PRO, whose purpose is to reduce the large number of control languages and system programs it has been necessary ...
