'Artemis, an experimental electronic telephone exchange'

Describes an experimental telephone exchange of the space division type and with electronic control. The two principal technical characteristics are the use of crosspoints consisting of reed contacts, and a centralized control with a stored program, called a "multiregister". In this first phase, the exchange is equipped for 800 subscribers on a private exchange. In order to study the problems of interconnecting an electronically controlled exchange with existing networks, the private exchange will also serve as part of the public exchange.
