SOVIET CYBERNETICS TECHNOLOGY: I. SOVIET CYBERNETICS, 1959-1962
A 1963 technical report from the Defense Technical Information Center, compiled from Willis H. Ware's Rand Corporation study of Soviet cybernetics between 1959 and 1962, written for American defense and intelligence readers. The single photograph shows two men in dark suits standing in front of a tall rack of electronic computing equipment, with banks of panels and rows of components filling the background, suggesting how a designer might render mid-century computer hardware as a stark, mechanical backdrop.
