User Manual for GERT EXCLUSIVE-OR Program

This report describes the procedures for using digital computer programs for analyzing GERT networks which contain nodes of the EXCLUSIVE-OR type and branches which have both a probability and a time associated with them. The time associated with a branch can be a random variable. The program calculates the probability, the expected time and the variance in the time to go from each source node of the GERT network to each sink node. Programs have been written in FORTRAN II and FORTRAN IV and have been exercised on the IBM 1130, GE 225 and CDC 3400 computers. This report details the operating procedures for using these programs. Four examples are included to illustrate the important facets involved in using the programs. Special options included in the program are: (1) printout of all loops and paths associated with the network; and (2) deletion of loops that have a probability of occurrence less than a value specified by the user. The program described in this report has been submitted to COSMIC.

Mossbauer-effect data-collection system

Automated data collection system which uses a small, general-purpose digital computer provides data acquisition from, and minor control of, four Mossbauer-effect experiments. This system is economical with no loss of versatility to the experimenter and is useful in handling large volumes of data from research experiments.

Structural Analysis and Matrix Interpretive System /SAMIS/

SAMIS digital computer program simplifies automated structural analysis and eliminates reprogramming for problem changes. Program objectives are achieved by standardizing, by providing a modular program, and by programming for intermediate-size problems.

Determination of quadric equation coefficients describing three-dimensional surfaces, their constraint and skewed planes, and view point areas

Mathematical model and a digital computer BLITZ language programming technique computes coefficients of quadric equations describing cylinders, paraboloids, ellipsoids, or planes with any orientation to a reference system, coordinates of a vector, and coefficients of quadric surfaces which limit the surface of three-dimensional space.

Biomedical bulk data processing program

Analog-to-digital computer accepts physiological flight data as three basic analog input signals - the ECG signal, the flowmeter signal which is a respiration monitor, and the accelerometer signal which measures the normal-g-load on the subject.
