• ### The Production of Completion Signals by Asynchronous, Iterative Networks

Publication Year: 1964, Page(s):83 - 86
Cited by:  Papers (8)
| | PDF (820 KB)

In a synchronous circuit an operation is complete when a given number of clock times have elapsed since it was begun. In an asynchronous network no such indication is available, and we must either rely on the network to inform us of completion, or wait for the worst-case delay. The second method is undesirable because normally the network will complete its operation long before the worst-case dela... View full abstract»

• ### Average Values of Quantities Appearing in Boolean Function Minimization

Publication Year: 1964, Page(s):87 - 92
Cited by:  Papers (27)
| | PDF (682 KB)

In connection with the problem of two-level minimization of Boolean functions, we have obtained in a combinatorial way the formulas which give the following quantities of statistical interest: average numbers of k cubes, prime k cubes and essential k cubes of a Boolean function. The parameters which appear in our formulas are: number of variables, number of one'' vertices and number of don't c... View full abstract»

• ### Improving Digital Computer Performance Using Residue Number Theory

Publication Year: 1964, Page(s):93 - 101
Cited by:  Papers (11)  |  Patents (1)
| | PDF (1622 KB)

Residue arithmetic has the interesting characteristic that in multiplication, addition and subtraction any digit in the result is dependent only on its two corresponding operand digits. Consequently, for these operations, residue arithmetic is inherently faster than the conventional weighted arithmetics. A system design approach for exploiting the desirable characteristics of both residue and conv... View full abstract»

• ### A Sequential Circuit for Algebraic Statement Translation

Publication Year: 1964, Page(s):102 - 105
Cited by:  Papers (2)
| | PDF (801 KB)

One component of a computer for direct execution of an algebraic language is a circuit which translates algebraic statements into control signals to activate appropriate data access, storage and arithmetic cycles. The state diagram for a simplified version of such a circuit is given and explained. A modification of the Mealy sequential circuit model is utilized to develop a circuit design techniqu...

• ### A Prewired Storage Unit

Publication Year: 1964, Page(s):106 - 111
Cited by:  Papers (3)
| | PDF (2401 KB)

A flexible and economical form of prewired semi-permanent storage with a capacity of 4096 words of 40 bits is described. A cycle time of 1 μsec can be readily achieved. The information is prepared by threading wires onto plates which are then placed over an array of ferrite rods. The sense in which a wire passes around the rod determines whether a current pulse in the wire will induce a po... View full abstract»

• ### A Technique for Achieving High Bit Packing Density on Magnetic Tape

Publication Year: 1964, Page(s):112 - 117
Cited by:  Papers (4)
| | PDF (3157 KB)

A technique is described for achieving very high bit packing densities, with low error rates, on magnetic tape. This technique uses envelope orthogonal signals to encode binary data during the recording process, and matched filters are used to recover these signals during playback. The experimental system constructed to evaluate the technique is described and a discussion of the experimental resul... View full abstract»

• ### Apictorial Jigsaw Puzzles: The Computer Solution of a Problem in Pattern Recognition

Publication Year: 1964, Page(s):118 - 127
Cited by:  Papers (96)
| | PDF (1918 KB)

This paper describes the development of a procedure that enables a digital computer to solve apictorial'' jigsaw puzzles, i.e., puzzles in which all pieces are uniformly gray and the only available information is the shape of the pieces. The problem was selected because it provided an excellent vehicle to develop computer techniques for manipulation of arbitrary geometric patterns, for pattern i... View full abstract»

• ### Simulation of Third Order Systems by a Single Operational Amplifier

Publication Year: 1964, Page(s):128 - 147
Cited by:  Papers (4)
| | PDF (1452 KB)

This is a continuation of the work reported earlier by Wadhwa. The simulation of five types of third-order linear systems with only one operational amplifier and a network consisting entirely of resistors and capacitors is discussed here. Some of the salient advantages, disadvantages and limitations of this technique of simulation are briefly mentioned. The network design equations and conditions ... View full abstract»
