โœฆ Synopsis

The rt,le of ',he computer as tn heuristic tool is contrasted to its use in predictive modelling and engineering desl~'n An exam[de of a one-dimensional system of nonlinearly coupled equimass particles is given and diso.ls~ed lrom the point of view of its heuristic content.

Next generation computer arc.hltec~ure is examined and it is suggested how computer networks 112112ht be used Io satisfy the 0isparate needs in science.

* The phenomenon described in this paper is usually called FPU behavior.
