Title :
CDC, Raytheon, and Harvard University: Three Early Data Management Systems
Author :
Koss, Adele Mildred
Abstract :
By 1965, having successfully combined work--at EMCC, Burroughs, and Philco--with the task of raising a family when such a combination was still somewhat of a rarity, the author went on to become a consultant in the Boston area. In this last installment of her memoirs, she describes working with different data management systems, culminating with her employment at Harvard University for 27 years.
