U.S. Research; Fostering the Next Generation of Computing

Article Abstract:

A poll of universities and companies involved in research cooperatives for the development of next-generation computer systems is illustrated in a five-page table. The table lists colleges, universities, and companies, what their research is in, and who is funding that research. Research areas include production, VLSI, computer architecture, and artificial intelligence.

Telecommunications: Clarke's Legacy

Article Abstract:

Syncom Two, the world's first synchronous orbiting satellite, was launched on July 26, 1963. The satellite demonstrated the feasibility of orbiting communications, joined NASA and private aerospace companies, and became the prototype for Intelsat, the largest satellite system in the world. The Advanced Communications Technology Satellite (ACTS) program is discussed.

The Teams and the Players: The United States

Article Abstract:

Cooperative research between commercial companies and universities leads to the next generation of computers in the United States. Groups include the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (Darpa), an industry cooperative, two university consortia, and individual university 'centers of excellence'. Universities and industry are cooperating more in research.
