Composition innovations at the American Society of Civil engineers
Abstract
Composition at the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) has progressed in 20 years from hot type to author prepared camera-ready copy, to IBM Executive typing, to math by hanger keys, to multilevel mathematics on the cathode-ray tube (CRT). ASCE's technical journals have incorporated each of these nonfederally subsidized innovations to deliver better, faster, lower cost final products in 13 journals that include about 13 000 pages per year and indexing of 5 000 articles, papers, and discussions per year from staff-typed optical-character-recognition (OCR) material prepared by an editor, half-time, and an editorial assistants Civil Engineering magazine, the biennial membership directory, and annual committee personnel listings are also computer composed.
