title: A minicomputer-based package enabling determination of particle size distribution from sectional profile size distribution (Wicksell's correction).
abstract: Up to now a rather large computing system was needed to perform a Wicksell's correction, enabling the deduction of the distribution of corpuscle sizes from the distribution of the sizes of their transected profiles. This paper describes the possibility to perform the same correction on a minicomputer with a free-access memory of only 8 kilobytes. A considerable time-saving may be obtained still by linking the minicomputer to a digital planimeter.
