Had never even heard of it, needed to look it up :-). Will have a
look later, but good report in the Digital Tech Journal,
volume 8, section 2, 1996. Load of other interesting reports there
as well.

It'a quite amazing, looking back to just how much effort digital and
others put into basic research. Stuff some take for granted now,
all the great books have been written etc, but just how many
don't even notice and continue to make the same mistakes over and
over again ?...
