I do know that my Mom worked for the Remington company after they converted over to make rifles instead of typewriters. She always said her job was to "make sure the hole in the rifle barrel went all the way through". LOL
I believe the computer aspect had to do with getting the timing of a machine gun to coordinate with the spinning of a propeller so they wouldn't shoot it off with their own gunfire.
