Applied mathematics and statistics: Overview

Through Jim Hailstone, Head of the Operation Group at Atlas, there was always a strong interest in statistical activities at Atlas providing both computing and data processing support for activities in the academic and government sectors.

Brian Cooper, a statistician, joined the Atlas Laboratory from Harwell early on and was responsible for the development of a large suite of programs of use to academic institutions.

A related area is time-series analysis in the sense that it involves the analysis of large volumes of data. A system called BOMM was developed for Atlas to cope with a wide range of time series analyses.

Susan Powell was strongly involved with the Linear Programming community in the UK.

NERC had a long-term interest in handling geoscience data. This eventually led to a small group being located in the Laboratory. G-EXEC was the main software system developed by this group in conjunction with the Atlas Computer Laboratory.
