    IRE-AIEE-ACM '60 (Western)
  • 3 May 1960
TLDR
The past decade has seen the development of productive fast electronic digital computers, but a growing number of important problems have been recorded which are not practicably computable by existing systems.

SARA (System ARchitects Apprentice): Modeling, analysis, and simulation support for design of concurrent systems
TLDR
An environment to support designers in the modeling, analysis, and simulation of concurrent systems is described and a description of the integral help designed into SARA shows how the designer can be offered consistent use of any new tool introduced to support the design process.

Automatic Assignment of Computations in a Variable Structure Computer System
TLDR
A numerical experiment on a problem from the area of the x-ray diffraction analysis of crystal structures indicates that the assignment procedure is computationally practical, and demonstrates that execution of the problem in a variable structure system leads to a considerable gain over a system of three modern high-speed general purpose computers.

Models of Computations and Systems—Evaluation of Vertex Probabilities in Graph Models of Computations
TLDR
Methods are discussed for determining the probabilities of reaching vertices in a graph model of computations and the generation of a priori estimates of expected computation time for given problems on given processing systems.
