Scharfenberg-Smith Concordance Program

The Scharfenberg-Smith Concordance Program, briefly known as the ICRH (Institute for Computer Research in the Humanities) Concordance Generator, was developed at the Thomas J. Watson Reserach Centre as part of research in machine translation from Russian to English. It was first described in 1964 as a program for teh IBM 7090.
