Schwartz worked for the Rand Corporation on various defense related projects: SAGE and JOHNNIAC in particular. When Rand organized the System Development Corporation, Schwartz went to the new company. For most of the interview, Schwartz describes his association with SAGE, his part in the computer laboratory work on time-sharing for the AN/FSQ-32 computer, computer networks, control system projects (such as TDMS), and his interactions with Advanced Research Projects Agency personnel, including J. C. R. Licklider, Lawrence G. Roberts, and Robert Taylor. He discusses his later position at Computer Sciences Corporation.
