This paper describes the organization of a multi processor system designed to analyze large systems such as power systems, global weather, and complex real-time systems. The configuration discussed handles up to 256 processors which can be inter connected using a new, high-speed communication method that takes advantage of the iterative com puting requirements of simulation problems. The communication scheme uses parallelism and address- mapping memories to achieve a very high interprocessor data-transfer rate. The solution of a large, sparse set of linear equations illustrates how the communi cation mechanism operates.

This article describes a set of computer programs for anazyzing, synthetizing, and identifying the parameters of continuous linear control systems. The programs are written in APL, with the algorithms chosen for rapid solution and ease of programming on the IBM 5100 portable minicomputer. After describ ing the organisation of the program, we discuss the algorithms in detail and present an example of their use.

Simulation models are frequently used to analyze missile performance. These models produce data that must be compared to corresponding flight-test data. This report describes statistical tests useful in making these comparisons. An application to an actual missile system is presented. The use of these statistical procedures in determining the validity of the model is discussed.
