Abstract
A gigantic calculating machine, designed to solve mathematical problems that ordinarily would take trained computers many weeks, has been developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge. This new instrument deals with problems involving rates of change among variable quantities and employs a physical system representing numbers. Problems with as manj as 18 variables can be solved
