The purpose of the Emergency Control Center can be stated in a single word, and that is communication. The normal operating mode of a Computer Center requires designated persons to execute specific procedures at scheduled times, under the direction and control of the appropriate management. In the case of an emergency condition, the task of the management and control of operational processing becomes more complex due to the many alternative processing procedures that my need to be invoked, and the abrupt relocation of certain operations.
