What is History of Nordic Computing Volume 174 about?

Computing In The Nordic Countries Started In Late 1940s Mainly As An Engineering Activity To Build Computing Devices To Perform Mathematical Calculations And Assist Mathematicians And Engineers In Scientific Problem Solving. The Early Computers Of The Nordic Countries Emerged During The 1950s And Had Names Like Bark, Besk, Dask, Smil, Sara, Esko, And Nusse. Each Of Them Became A Nucleus In Institutes And Centres For Mathematical Computations Programmed And Used By Highly Qualified Professionals.
