THE LOGIC ORGANIZER AND DIAGNOSIS PROGRAMS,
Abstract
The first part of the report is a user's manual for those wishing to use the system of programs for the diagnosis of sequential switching circuits. The second part is a programmer's manual. Detailed descriptions of the individual sub-routines, including calling sequences and peculiarities are given. This system of programs was developed as a tool in the experimental study of self-diagnosis in electronic digital computers. The system consists of two programs--the organizer (5000 instructions) and the sequential circuit analyzer (10,000 instructions) with about 1500 instructions in common. The organizer is a program for arranging the logic in levels and identifying any feedback loops not identified in the input. The sequential circuit analyzer is a program for producing the testing procedure for any given sequential circuit. The organizer prepares the input for the analyzer. The entire system is written in machine language for the CDC 1604 computer and uses the Illinois system subroutines for input-output. (Author)
