Computation of e x with the use of large tables
Kurt Spielberg · IBM Systems Journal · 1966
With the availability of continually increasing amounts of core storage, one might reasonably expect a trend toward programs which take advantage of large tables to reduce execution times. Examples of areas in which large tables have already been found necessary for the attainment of reasonable computation times are: large-scale weather forecasting, neutron transport and diffusion calculations, and bubble chamber analyses.
