Synopsis: A feasibility model of a new, special purpose computer using dioderesistor logic and high-speed pulse amplifiers has recently been completed. Magnetic-core logic circuitry is used to implement one part of the program generation function. Memory is provided by quartz ultrasonic delay lines and associated transistorized drivers and amplifiers. This paper describes the operation and characteristics of the computer and contains a description of a special "data simulation" technique which was used to test the computer in the laboratory.
