Summary:

This volume contains the full text of the thirty-seven technical papers selected for presentation and discussion at the 1963 Spring Joint Computer Conference. It also includes a summary of one of the special panel discussions. Thus it provides a permanent record of the more formal side of the Conference.The material herein represents a broad cross-section of activity in computer and information-processing technology, as of early 1963. In organizing the program for the Conference, general areas of interest were tentatively established for each session, and these were used as guides in selecting and grouping papers. On the whole, however, no real constraints were imposed as to subject matter.Indicative of the scope are three papers devoted specifically to critical analyses of the current state-of-the-art. In other papers, the subjects discussed range from basic concepts to practical applications, in both hardware and software, reflecting the ever-broadening impact of information processing on modern society.This volume is the product of much hard work on the part of the authors who prepared the individual papers. We are indeed grateful for these contributions---clearly the backbone of any highly technical Conference such as this. It is also a pleasure to acknowledge the contributions of the many others---well over a hundred---who helped organize the Conference and who participated as session chairmen, panel moderators, panelists, and reviewers.
