ADEPT - AN AUTOMATIC DATA EXTRACTOR AND PLOTTING TABLE FOR HIGH SPEED REPETITIVE ANALOG COMPUTATION
Abstract
Idetifie APT.An instrument called ADEPT, an automatic data extractor and plotting te, esced. The ADEPT is designed to plot results from problems being solved on a high-speed repetitive analog computer. In one instance, automatically plottresu were obtained from the computer in seconds that hitherto required days. It has sixAUTOMATIC PLOTTING MODES THAT MADE IT EASY TO OBTAIN A WIDE VARIETY OF INFORMATION FROM THE COMPUTER SOLUTIONS. The device operates by holding in storage the magnitude of a solution until it can be plotted. An incrementing coeffcientlot, used as a problem parameter, is included in the ADEPT wich alows computer solutions to be changed automatically. For each increment of thoefientoint, one point is plotted. (Author)
