Use of microcomputer to help teach pathology.
A BBC microcomputer was incorporated into a closed circuit television system while it was being used to show microscope slides. The computer generates screens of text that complement the demonstration of the microscopy. An additional feature is the capacity of the system to produce 35 mm transparencies.
متن کاملMatrix Computations in Basic on a Microcomputer
We consider the efficient implementation of matrix computations in interpreted Basic on a microcomputer. Linear equations routines SGEFA and SGESL from the LINPACK library of Fortran programs are translated into Basic and run on four microcomputers: the Commodore 64, the Amstrad CPC 464, the BBC Microcomputer, and the BBC with a Z-80 second processor. The computational cost of the routines is f...
متن کاملAn Automated Microscope Scanning Stage for Fission-track Dating
A microcomputer controlled scanning stage has been developed which greatly facilitates track counting. It has been designed specifically for the external detector method of fission-track dating, although the basic hardware could be used for a variety of different scanning requirements. With this system, the microscope stage is automatically controlled to move between corresponding points on the...
متن کاملMeasurement of surface topography of magnetic tapes by Mirau interferometry.
Stylus-profiling techniques cannot be used for surface characterization of polymeric surfaces, such as magnetic tapes, because of their relatively low hardness An interferometric-optical-profiling microscope system was used to obtain high-accuracy surface profiles of magnetic media, rapidly and without physical contact with the sample. The profilometer consists of a conventional, reflection-typ...
متن کاملComputing for the Masses? Constructing a British Culture of Computing in the Home
The creation of the personal computer during the late 1970s and early 1980s is heralded as a time that people were liberated by computers as tools for everyone. The proliferation of affordable and relatively powerful computers changed the landscape of computing across the globe. This chapter looks at the introduction of one machine, the BBC Microcomputer, and its influence on the culture of com...
