摘要:
SUMMARYThe Royal Statistical Society's first 100 years (1834–1934) are reviewed, mainly with quotations from itsJournal.The development of its aims, its views on the subject matter and its use (or non‐use) of mathematical methods are followed by consideration of such matters as housing, finances, elections, meetings, etc.

摘要:
SUMMARYThe progress of the Royal Statistical Society is recorded from 1934 to 1984. After a sketch of the statistical background before 1945, subsequent developments are divided into sections: professional matters, meetings, publications, public policy, management, organization. Finally, a retrospective view is taken over the whole period.

摘要:
SUMMARYThe history of computing in statistics is outlined, from Babbage's engines through electro‐mechanical calculators to electronic computers. The present state is discussed in relation to algorithms, with their dependence on hardware and languages, control languages, statistical data structures and operating systems. Important recent developments include graphics and the application of expert‐system technology.

摘要:
SUMMARYThe relation between a frequency domain analysis and a time domain analysis of a time series is discussed. The effect of autocorrelation in the errors on least squares regression analysis is considered. Approximations to the second order of accuracy of the distributions of some statistics of interest in time series analysis are described. The potential of the Kalman filter for some time series problems including forecasting and seasonal adjustment is assessed.

摘要:
SUMMARYThe history of the UK Government Statistical Service (GSS) has been an evolution from separate units serving departments to the present “federal” structure. The emphasis of the work of the GSS has also shifted as policy has changed; the present stress is on service to government, and work which is of interest to outside bodies but not directly relevant to government has much lower priority than formerly. Assuming no major policy changes, the most conspicuous change in the near future is likely to be in the presentation of statistics, with much greater use of computer databanks to take over some of the functions now carried out by printed paper; printed output will continue, but computer typesetting will streamline its production. Computer methods will also simplify data collection. Statisticians will be relieved of some routine production tasks, which may make more effort available for commentary and interpretation. The organization of the service to government will remain largely decentralized, and the work of the statistician will draw heavily on his knowledge of the subject matter as well as on his statistical expertise. An interesting possibility is the development of statistical “expert systems”; they are unlikely to displace human experts entirely.

摘要:
SUMMARYAn outline is given of some of the work of Florence Nightingale (1820–1910), one of the earliest women members of the Society. Her lessons on the need for uniformly collected data and action based on statistical analysis are still apposite. The major statistical contributions to reduction of human disease that can be made now and in the near future are in the developing countries. Nearer at hand, if more medical statisticians are trained, they will contribute to basic medical science, to the evaluation of therapies and methods of health care provision, and to the protection of the public.
