MILDATA STUDY. A FEASIBILITY STUDY OF FUTURE MILITARIZED DIGITAL COMPUTER REQUIREMENTS.

Abstract

This report documents the progress to date on the system organization studies and hardware techniques projection phases of the MILDATA Study. Topics covered under system organization studies include: Survey of software problems in multiprocessor configurations, such as interchangeability of modules, memory allocation and protection, executive control requirements, and intermodule switching problems. Development of system performance evaluation and design methodology in the areas of cost-effectiveness of high speed memories, feasibility of common processor design, and reliability analysis of modular configurations. Progress in hardware techniques projection is reported in peripheral equipment, memory, control processor logic, packaging, and wiring techniques, system integration problems, and the long-range impact of new device technology on system organization.
