Abstract
The use of digital computers for the centralized monitoring and control of various operations is gaining acceptance in a number of fields. Under such a centralized supervisory system, all important performance variables are transmitted, or telemetered, to a central location where they are logged, displayed, and manipulated as may be required to achieve the desired operations. The initial automation effort is usually substantial, being somewhat dependent on the project scope. The selection of computer and associated peripheral equipment for such an effort is of significant importance. Basic information concerning computers and associated peripheral equipment that should be of use to management level personnel is presented. A concise glossary of commonly encountered computer terms, and the characteristics of a number of commonly used mini-computers is also included. (Author)
