Abstract
Abstract. The low price of minicomputers makes them attractive for timeconsuming jobs which are only cpu-bound, like Monte Carlo simulations. At the H. C. Ørsted Institute a minicomputer with 12 k main memory has been connected to the multiprogrammed RC4000 computer. All program development is done on the RC4000 and so is the control of the minicomputer.
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.

Findings are not separately available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Limitations are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Application details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
