This issue includes two conference reports on the design program for ASVT modular hardware, and two articles discussing the causes of the time lag in implementing new technology. A summary of the Soviet view of writing programming languages is given in an article announcing the ALGOL 60-based ALPHA language, now used to compile BESM-6 code on the M-20 computer. The Recursive Functions Algorithmic Language (REFAL), used on the BESM-6, is also discussed. Articles on computer hardware include discussions of the (1) UP-1 two-way analog/digital converter using Ural-10 modules; (2) Promin' computer to process experimental data; (3) Kaktus system of computer-monitored instruction; (4) KVN-5 device for automatic vacuum spraying of thin films; (5) ChARS reader for typewritten data; (6) VNIIem-3 control computer for industrial use. A new book on the problem of optimality is of considerable interest (1) because optimality is one of the important problems now being studied by cybernetic methods, and (2) because of the publisher's forward and disclaimer.

The October 1969 issue introduces preview synopses of new Soviet books of special interest to Western readers, and adds coverage of the new CPSU Central Committee newspaper. An overview of Soviet information retrieval work in science and technology is given in several articles and book excerpts, which decry the lack of adequate hardware, software, and personnel and the 'intolerable' slowness of the publication process. System analysts, system programmers, and applied mathematicians trained in specialized higher educational institutions are particularly needed. 'Sciometry', a new book on the 'science of science, ' lists the problems encountered by Soviet researchers, including lack of informal participation in international exchanges, delays in receiving foreign journals, the need for a centralized reference source and computerized information services, publication delays, and the two-way language barrier. Translated articles cover the nomination for a State Prize of the manufacturer and designer of the BESM-6; the SNCC; a logic device based on neuronlike structures; a PERT method for troop control; automatic indexing work; and a new document retrieval language.

The June issue initiates a new title for the former Soviet Cybernetics: Recent News Items. One article gives the first concrete evidence of a new direction in Soviet computers toward third-generation machines that are program-compatible with the IBM System 360; the M-1000, -2000, and -3000 are the first being developed. Other hardware discussed are the Ural-14, Razdan-3, BESM-4, Ruta-110, Minsk-22, -23, and -32 computers and the Robotron-300 high-speed data processing complex. One article concludes that a multimachine operating mode promises more efficiency than does multiprogramming. Several articles stress the importance of fitting computers for national economic planning and automated control systems. An article on modeling artificial intelligence is included.

The special issue is devoted to programming and programming languages. A revolution comparable to the FORTRAN II era in U.S. computing has been taking place in Soviet software, particularly in the development of algorithmic languages and translators. While ALGOL remains the basis of Soviet programming languages, interest is growing in FORTRAN, COBOL, and SIMSCRIPT, and local languages have been developed. New directions in Soviet computing are evidenced by trends toward large machines and third-generation (ASVT) computers that are compatible with the IBM Series/360; integration of hardware and system design; and new concern with man-machine interaction. Manifesting this heightened interest, the First All-Union Conference on Programming was held in November 1968. The issue contains abstracts of the papers presented and a full translation of a report on the use of automata theory in resolving problems in the man-machine interface. (Author).

The May issue features an article on automated management information systems in which it is clearly indicated that the Soviet labor force is feeling the effects of automation. Three articles on forecasting show that prognostics is beginning to take hold in the Soviet Union and that is is being dealt with by some very prestigious scientists. Academician G. Marchuk's article on the centralized management of the computer industry reflects the thinking of Soviet leaders in computing about the USSR's needs, particularly relative to the importance of disc storage units. Hardware discussed includes the Ruta, the Masis, the M-54, and some East German machines. Other articles describe computer-assisted and computer-managed instruction in electrical engineering; automation of a heavy machine plant; conferences on industrial and general psychology and on mathematical methods in geology and hydrogeology; research at Science City and Kiev; and developed of the State Network of Computing Centers.

The issue features an article on small computers and a progress report on the State Network of Computing Centers. Two articles, one popular and one technical, describe the planned Sirena-1 system for airline reservations. The system differs from Western systems in two respects: (1) It does not apply to all of Aeroflot's ticket sales and reservations, but only to the Moscow airport, with some tie-ins to other major airports for return flights to Moscow. (2) It provides automated printing for individual passenger tickets. A description of the computer science curricular and support activities of Moscow State University is provided by an article on the University Computer Center. Other items of interest include (1) a biography of Academician, Engineer-Admiral Aksels I. Berg, on the occasion of his 75th birthday; (2) a critique on how scientists spend their working hours; (3) an article on the Lvov Information Control System (designed by Glushkov for the Lvov TV Factory), which the Ukranian Academy of Sciences has ordered to be generalized for use in a wide range of factories engaged in mass production of a limited variety of products.
