Dear Bmil-

Mur "little! LINC computer arrived ani was st into
operation juring the past week, an? has given us a real
nush in real-time comoutation. You shoul recomnize the
matrig on the enclosed vhotograph, which illustrates
the doint-- it is taken from the line oscilloscone. Lee
Huntley is very busil, writing programs (an! has tnem
partly workine) to compare two matrixes under manval
selection, ani disnlay the product. Actually we shouldn't
oe using the LINC in just this way, as it is much more
economical to program the 7090, but this is a -atter of
imnatmience until we actually have the connection set
up between LINC and the PDP- and the latter to the 7990
a little more effectively than you saw.

So I thought you'd like to see this.

I have had to arrange for Larry Tesler to spend a
little more time on some other projects, but e will
be continuing very soon on our vroblen.

' There may have been one risprint in Ockoa's latest
article (1ys/leu in one of his tables) in the June PNAS
(actually Wahba et al0; apart from that, the only experimen
tal discrepancy with Eck's vroposition so far seems to
be a claim that gln rather than ser is codei by mgaxCA’.

Tt is hari to sa’ how consequential this is yet.

Best wishes,

Lauer
