Class I consists of systems with vacuum tube circuitry and which can be classified into large-scale, medium-scale, and small-scale, based on the computer and its associated peripheral equipment as defined below. There is no implied evaluation of machine capabilities in terms of large, medium and small. Mimimum requirements for each group follow: Large-scale: The system uses magnetic tapes and the computer operates at microsecond arithmetic speeds. Price in general is in the order of magnitude of one million dollars or more. Medium-scale: The system uses mag- netic tapes and the computer operates at millisecond arithmetic speeds. In general, the price range is from $500,000 to $1,000,000. Small-scale: The system does not use magnetic tapes but the computer is internally programmed.

Class II consists of systems with transistorized circuitry, generally known as "second gen- eration" computers. Many of these systems are characterized by expandability or modular design.

The criteria used for subdividing Class II are shown below:

Number of Average

Monthly Magnetic Storage Overlap of Reading,

Rental Tapes On bits) Writing, Computing Notes

A. Desk (does Under None 20,000 None Input-output normally

B. Small Under 0-6 100,000 None All input-output on line.

C. Medium $12-25,000 6-12 500,000 Yes Magnetic tape oriented.

D. Large $25-75,000 More than 12 1,000,000 Yes Magnetic tape oriented.

E. Extra Large Over More than 12 Over Yes Speeds and capacities

$75,000 1,000,000 outside range of normal

business data processing For most Class II systems, expansion to the next higher level is possible without serious imbalance.

Miscellaneous computers are card calculators and other machines which do not fall into one of the above systems classIfications.

1GB COMPUTERS and AUTOMATION for April, 19G2

MONTHLY COMPUTER CENSUS

The number of electronic computers installed, or in production at anyone time has been increasing at a bewildering pace in the past several years. New vendors have come into the computer market, and familiar machines have gone out of production. Some new machines have beeri received with open arms by users -- others have been given the cold shoulder.

To aid our readers in keeping up with this mush- rooming activity, the editors of COMPUTERS AND AUTO- MATION present this monthly report on the number of American-made general purpose computers installed or on order as of the preceding month. We update this computer census monthly, so that it will serve as a

"box-score" of progress for readers interested in following the growth of the American computer in- dustry.

Most of the figures are verified by the respec- tive manufacturers. In cases where this is not so, estimates are made based upon information in the reference files of COMPUTERS AND AUTOMATION. The figures are then reviewed by a group of computer industry cognoscenti.

Any additions, or corrections, from informed readers will be welcomed.

COMPUTORS and AUTOMATION for March, 1963 51

MONTHLY COMPUTER CENSUS

The numoer of electronic computers installed, or in production at anyone time has oeen increasing at a oewildering pace in the past several years. New vendors have come into the computer market, and familiar machines have gone out of production. Some new machines have been received with open arms by users -- others have been given the cold shoulder.

To aid our readeis in keeping up with this mush- rooming activity, the editors of COMPUTERS AND AUTO- MATION present this monthly report on the number of American-made general purpose computers installed or on order

a~

of the preceding month. We update this computer

c~nsus

monthly, so that it will serve as a

"box-score" of progress for readers interested in following the growth of the American computer in- dustry.

Most of the figures are verified by the respec- tive manufacturers. In cases where this is not so, estimates are made based upon information in the reference files of COMPUTERS AND AUTOMATION. The figures are then reviewed by a group of computer

industr~

cognoscenti.

Any additions, or corrections, from informed readers 'will be welcomed.

MONTHL:Y

The number of electronic computers installed, or in production at anyone time has been increasing at a bewildering pace in the past several years. New vendors have come into the computer market, and familiar machines have gone out of production. Some new machines have been received with open arms by users -- others have been given the cold shoulder.

To aid our readeis in keeping up with this mush- rooming activity, the editors of COMPUTERS AND AUTO- MATION present this monthly report on the number of American-made general purpose computers installed or on order as of the

precedi~g

month. We update this computer census monthly, so that it will serve as a

C,ENSUS

"box-score" of progress for readers interested in following the growth of the American computer in- dustry.

Most of the figures are verified by the respec- tive manufacturers. In cases where this is not so, estimates are made based upon information in the reference files of COMPUTERS AND AUTOMATION. The figures are then reviewed by a group of computer industry cognoscenti.

Any additions, or corrections, from informed readers will be welcomed.
