Abstract

MIT-IBM engineering concurrence has been reached on requests for DC buildings, equipment cooling, lighting and power generation for the production systems. These requests were subsequently issued as Lincoln Technical Information Releases by the Production Coordination Office. A proposal to provide duplex equipment similar to AN/FSQ-7 for the air division Combat Center has been furnished to ADC.
