By using the proper COBOL coding techniques and accounting for differences in storage allocation and library routines between the two languages, it is possible to write FORTRAN IV subroutines that may be called from COBOL main …

A data input scheme for a time-sharing computer is described in this paper. Instead of using format statements to determine the input, the computer asks the user for the required values one at a time. The computer converses with …

Systems in which variable time-lags are present are of common occurrence in biology. Variable flow rates are a common cause of these variable lags. At present no extensive body of knowledge exists concerning the effects which …

In a recent article in the
Communications of the ACM, R. Wengert suggested a technique for machine evaluation of the partial derivatives of a function given in analytical form. In solving nonlinear boundary-value problems using …

This is to report a further use of the FORTRAN II Chain System. We, at Sandia, have modified the Chain subroutine to allow for picking up chains from the disk instead of a chain tape. The major change was the addition of a job …

A method for the numerical solution of the
n-point boundary value problem for homogeneous linear ordinary differential equations is developed. The method requires two Runge-Kutta integrations over the interval under consideration …
