“…In addition, (7) as already noted passage retrieval is accomplished by text searching, which eliminates all costs of human indexing. (8) In the experiments described below, no cross-reference systems (e.g., thesauri, hierarchical subject heading systems such as MESH, etc.) are required, which saves in cost.…”

Passage retrieval (already operational for lawyers) has advantages in output form over reference retrieval and is economically feasible. Previous experiments in passage retrieval for scientists have demonstrated recall and false retrieval rates as good or better than those of present reference retrieval services. The present experiment involved a greater variety of forms of retrieval question. In addition, search words were selected independently by two different people for each retrieval question. The search words selected, in combination with the computer procedures used for passage retrieval, produced average recall ratios of 72 and 67%, respectively, for the two selectors. The false retrieval rates were (except for one predictably difficult question) respectively 13 and 10 falsely retrieved sentences per answer-paper retrieved.

“…As we shall see later they would be particularly useful in style specification macros which would be usually defined only once for a particular publisher/user. 6. Style specification : this essentially includes dommands for setting the composition style for page numbers, headings, footings, foatnotes and running text.…”

Text composition software is mainly used by compositors, who are usually not programmers, and who do not necessarily know much about the underlying technicalities of computer usage. It is important, therefore, that the text composition system be such that a compositor would have a minimum amount of learning to do. Factors such as flexibility of style specification and economical proof generation are important from a user's point of view. O n the other hand, multilingual text input, output device independence and system portability are points of concern for the system designer. In this paper, a specific text composition software system designed on the basis of such considerations is briefly described. The way in which the above-mentioned factors affect the design of the system is discussed in some detail.

“…For certain special classes of structures, this capability will be supplemented by a system which will cause structures to be "played back" from a file of display instructions recorded from input via an interactive graphics terminal. 3 The purpose of this paper is to further describe the ASD program.…”
