Abstract

The UDC as a language for machine retrieval has been tested and found feasible using a collection of seismological literature. The system developed is flexible and can be adjusted to any desired level of exhaustivity of indexing. A description is given of the technique for handling UDC relationships, recording the input data, and searching the data file using an IBM 1401 computer.
