"Although this report deals specifically with the coding of problems for A.R.C. (automatic relay computer) it can be considered as the successor to our previous work on the design of electronic computers. This in because we have made the code of A.R.C. identical with that projected for the electronic machine . The advantage of this arrangement is obvious, we shall be able to transfer any problem which has been coded for A.R.O, directly to the electronic machine when this becomes available In addition, the experience which we gain in using the simpler machine may form a valuable guide to possibly advantageous modifications of the code for the faster computer."-- preface

• Mission: The Mission of the Mathematics and Natural Sciences (MNS) Library is to support the research of the Schools of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, and the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) as a whole. • Vision: The MNS Library shall be a central part of the Member and Faculty experience during their time at IAS, via their independent use of the library collections and the Librarian’s provision of associated consultation and services. • Goals: o To maintain a collection at the highest level of quality o To develop collection policies that assist in accessible and independent use of the MNS Collections o To develop services that assist Members and Faculty in obtaining their goals while also managing the existing physical space of the Library in a strategic way

Developments in the theory of the electron / A. Pais : containing also an abstract of Field and charge measurements in quantum theory, a paper by N. Bohr and L. Rosenfeld.

Program, schedule, and participant listing for "The Einstein Centennial Symposium", in honor of School of Mathematics Faculty Member Professor Albert Einstein, held at IAS March 4-9, 1979.

Lectures given at Institute for Advanced Study, 1935-36; notes by Prof. Weyl and Dr. Leonard M. Blumenthal.

Record of a seminar, academic year 1937-1938; notes by Herbert Busemann.

"The conversations which are enclosed took place over the weekend of January 10-11, 1992, and represent the contributions of members of the School of Historical Studies to a gathering of Trustees, Friends of the Institute, and invited guests. No particular format had been imposed; each speaker chose his own manner of presentation. Nor are all professors represented..." ... "they gave, to those who attended, an unusual insight into the framework within which history is pursued and practiced at the Institute, an insight whose value was considered worth sharing with a larger audience."--Preface.

This is a general paper on the design of a general-purpose stored-program computer.
