Questions of the automation of input, output and data processing on computers in systems of information services are covered in the discussion of peculiarities of applied computers and processed information, general characteristics of processing algorithms and problems of information input and output. This is followed by a discussion of the organizations of an information system based on the computer "DNEPR." The basic parameters of the computer are given. The exchange of information in the man-machine system is touched upon and diagrammatically shown. The next selected article discussed the development of a dictionary and algorithms for the system of automatic descriptor indexing of patent documentation in the English language. The final article deals with questions of the dynamic optimization of information process in computers with highly developed parallelism. This is divided into three sections: (1) initial prerequisites and formulation of the problem, (2) selection and description of the method of dynamic optimization and (3) method and certain results of an experimental check of the selected method.
