Standard computer documentation

Abstract

It seems that as far as analysing sales data and physical distribution is concerned, the technological changes of the new few years will affect speed and accuracy of information. It also seems that no manufacturer or retailer can afford to overlook the possible benefits of these developments and not weigh them up against the costs. Donald Harris joined Tesco 15 years ago from International Computers and Tabulators (now ICL) where he was in charge of a programming section. His first appointment was as computer manager with responsibility for setting up and running Tesco's computer department. In 1970, he was appointed a Director of Tesco Stores Ltd, and acquired additional responsibilities covering distribution of goods throughout the country. In June 1977, Mr Harris became the Chairman of the Article Numbering Association.
