註釋
The John R. Ehrman collection contains material collected or created by Ehrman that documents his work at IBM and Stanford University, and his membership with SHARE. Records date from 1956 to 2005, with the bulk from 1966 to 1995. Most of the collection consists of manuals, reference guides, books, technical reports, specifications, and program listings. Much of the records’ focus is on programming, with an emphasis on FORTRAN and its related languages. Nearly half of the collection is made up of material published by IBM, with some of it pre- dating Ehrman’s employment there. A significant portion of the IBM material is related to the IBM System/360 and IBM System/370 and their operating systems, the Basic Assembly Language (BAL) and its successors, and other programming languages. Though containing less material, the records related to Stanford and SHARE provide a background in the development of FORTRAN and other languages and programs. The Stanford records highlight the ACME (Advanced Computer for Medical Research) time-sharing system, typesetting and typography programming, and the programming languages MORTRAN and FORTRAN. The SHARE material contains a large amount of records specific to the group’s involvement in the development of FORTRAN, in addition to records related to SHARE meetings and technical reports. The final series in the collection contains manuals, specifications, technical reports, books, program listings, conference proceedings, catalogs, and newsletters from a variety of companies, associations, and universities not represented in the first three series. Topics vary, but much of the material is about FORTRAN and related languages, computer design, and programming.
