Abstract
This field of work includes those principal problems and complexes of activities which are carried out with the assistance of computers, i.e., which are automated, in the preparation for manufacturing and in manufacturing itself. These are problems prevailing in the manufacture of discrete parts in the metalworking industry; they are transferable, to a certain extent, to similar processes in the manufacture of piece goods.
