The Research and academic users' guide to the IBM personal computer

Paul Barnetson · Oxford University Press eBooks · 1988

The IBM Personal Computer family is now established as one of the most popular microcomputers and intelligent terminals in use by the academic and research worker today. This second volume in the series about the IBM PC covers a wide range of its applications. There are articles on using the IBM PC for academic applications: from classical Greek to communicating with other academics via JANET and EARN ; from using expert systems in biology to phonetics training; from thermoluminescence dating to law and others. The tools and techniques described here could be of interest to a wider readership than just merely computer specialists.
