Die Anwendung der Hochintegrationstechnologie im Bereich der MeB-, Steuerungs- und Regelungstechnik mit oder ohne Verwen- dung von datenverarbeitenden Komponenten, wie beispielsweise Mikroprozessoren, ist in den letzten Jahren im wesentlichen unter dem Gesichtspunkt des Ersatzes konventioneller Techniken erfolgt. Mikrorechner waren insbesondere dort erfolgreich, wo bereits in der Vergangenheit Verfahren entwickelt worden wa- ren, die in das Rechnerprogramm Ubernommen werden konnten. Erst in jUngster Zeit ist eine Fortentwicklung bestehender Methoden unter spezieller Nutzung von hochintegrierten Komponenten zu be- achten. Weiterhin zeigt sich, daB die Entwicklung von neueren Verar- beitungsverfahren in vielen Bereichen der MeB- und Regelungs- technik neue Aspekte eroffnet. Dies hat dazu gefUhrt, daB die Komponentenhersteller sich rasch auf diese Situation einge- stellt haben. In diesen Bereich ist - insbesondere unter Verwendung lei- stungsfahiger Speicher- und Zusatzkomponenten - die von Herrn M.Malms vorgelegte Arbeit einzureihen. Sie befaBt sich mit einer Verarbeitungseinheit, die im wesentlichen ein in- haltsadressierbares Speichersystem darstellt, bei dem Zusatz- elemente samtliche Operationen der Informations-Wiedergewin- nung abzuarbeiten erlauben. Allerdings darf dieses System nicht nur unter dem Gesichtspunkt der schnellen Datenfindung gesehen werden, da auch andere Applikationsbereiche wegen der hohen Leistungsfahigkeit erschlossen werden konnen. Es ist zu begrUBen, daB diese Arbeit in der Reihe "Informatik-Fachberichte" herausgegeben werden kann. Somit wird dieses System einem breiteren Kreis von Fachleuten zuganglich, zumal eine Fortentwicklung mit UnterstUtzung der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft vorgesehen ist.

Die Absicht, ein Buch iiber Programmieren von Ziffernrechenanlagen zu schreiben, entstand auf Grund einer Vorlesung gleichen Titels, die ich seit nunmehr sieben Jahren an der Technischen Hochschule Wien halte. Ich hatte dabei bemerkt, daB das Interesse fiir die Programmierung von Ziffernrechnern immer weitere Kreise zieht und daB es moglich ist, dieses Interesse aus einem einheitlichen Gesichtswinkel zu befriedigen. Der Zugang zur Kenntnis des Programmierens erfolgt heute iiblicher- weise mit Hille der Mathematischen Verfahrenstechnik oder von seiten der Administrativen Automation, oder schlieBlich iiber die mit tech- nischen Einzelheiten vermengte Beschreibung spezieller Maschinen. Ich bin nun der Meinung, daB man ein Buch iiber Programmieren schreiben kann, ohne auf Einzelheiten der Mathematischen Verfahrenstechnik und der Biiroautomation oder auf technische Eigenschaften spezieller Ma- schinen eingehen zu miissen, und ohne damit jewells einem Tell der Leser das Verstandnis zu erschweren. Was nach Fortlassung der ge- nannten Gebiete bleibt, ist nicht ein trockener, unverstandlicher Rest, sondern der Inbegriff aller fiir das Programmieren wesentlichen Prin- zipien. Sowohl der Naturwissenschaftler als auch der Verwaltungsfach- mann, der diese Prinzipien erfaBt hat, wird jederzeit in der Lage sein, sie seinen besonderen Aufgaben dienstbar zu machen. Kapitel A solI zeigen, welchen Platz der Rechenautomat unter den technischen Errungenschaften einnimmt und wie er dorthin gelangt ist. Besonderes Anliegen ist mir hier der geschichtliche Uberblick, well einer- seits die deutschsprachigen Biicher auf diesem Gebiet kaum historische Angaben enthalten und andererseits die anglo-amerikanische Literatur die kontinentaleuropaische Entwicklung iibergeht. - Kapitel B enthalt die Beschreibung einer gedachten Maschine TElCO in allen Einzelheiten.

Die rege Propaganda von Firmen, die Buchungsmaschinen verkaufen, hat sehr dazu beigetragen, daB, allgemein gesehen, der Ubergang vom ehrwiirdigen, gebundenen, handschriftlich gefiihrten Buche mit mehr facher Ubertragungsnotwendigkeit zu wirksameren, zeitsparenden Ver fahren der Vermogensaufzeichnung unaufhaltsam fortschreitet. In dieser Entwicklung, deren Richtung durch neue Anschauungen iiber Geschaftstechnik, neue Aufgaben der Buchhaltung, neue Buchungs verfahren und neue Buchungsgerate bestimmt wird, sind die Buchungs maschinen ein Glied. Eine Darstellung der Technik der Maschinenbuchhaltung kann sich daher nicht auf eine bloBe Beschreibung der Maschinen beschranken, ja sie kann sie nicht einmal in den V ordergrund stellen, sie muB vielmehr zeigen, wo diese Hilfsmittel zweckmaBig in den Arbeitslauf einzugliedern sind, welche Voraussetzungen fUr ihren Einsatz und fUr ihre giinstigste Ausnutzung bestehen und welche Ergebnisse von ihrer Anwendung erwartet werden konnen. Die neuen Arbeitsgerate setzen neue Verfahren und damit auch neuartige Arbeitslaufgestaltung voraus. Daher ist es nicht moglich, die Maschinenbuchhaltung auf der Technik hand schriftlicher Buchhaltung aufzubauen. Man muB dabei von den unter sten Grundlagen unseres heutigen Rechnungswesens ausgehen. Die Praxis schopft ihr Wissen von diesen Dingen heute noch fast ausschlieBlich aus den Prospekten der Maschinen-Verkaufsfirmen. DaB diese Prospekte nicht das allgemein Giiltige der Maschinenbuchhaltung hervorheben konnen, auch nicht objektiv aIle Seiten eines bestimmten Maschinentyps beleuchten und mit anderen Typen vergleichen, ist klar. Diesem Mangel verdankt dieses Buch seine Entstehung."
