The Applications of Regression Analysis in Auditing and Computer Systems

Description: This thesis describes regression analysis and shows how it can be used in account auditing and in computer system performance analysis. The study first introduces regression analysis techniques and statistics. Then, the use of regression analysis in auditing to detect "out of line" accounts and to determine audit sample size is discussed. These applications led to the concept of using regression analysis to predict job completion times in a computer system. The feasibility of this application o… more

Design and Implementation of a TRAC Processor for Fairchild F24 Computer

Description: TRAC is a text-processing language for use with a reactive typewriter. The thesis describes the design and implementation of a TRAC processor for the Fairchild F24 computer. Chapter I introduces some text processing concepts, the TRAC operations, and the implementation procedures. Chapter II examines the history and -characteristics of the TRAC language. The next chapter specifies the TRAC syntax and primitive functions. Chapter IV covers the algorithms used by the processor. The last chapter d… more

A Distributed Logic Memory with Two-dimensional Access, as Applied to a Highly Parallel Processor

Description: Although more sophisticated designs of associative memories are not yet economically practical, with the dynamic advances in integrated circuitry currently taking place, the day appears not long off for an economical sophisticated associative memory to become a reality. This describes a general outline of a sophisticated DLM, but it also describes the actual logic involved in a building a working model. The design process involves formulating a set of commands sufficient to perform the desired … more

Macro Control Structures for Structured Programming in ALC

Description: This thesis describes a set of computer program control structures which permits the application of certain structured programming techniques to the IBM/360 assembly language (ALC). The control structures are implemented by programmerdefined instructions known as macros. A history of computer software is presented, providing a basis for the emergence of structured programming. A survey of the major concepts of structured programming with special attention to control structures and their signifi… more

Simulation of the IBM System/7

Description: This thesis describes the simulation of the IBM SYSTEM/7. The research leading to this thesis involved the development of a PL/I computer program that runs on an IBM 360/50 computer and simulates the IBM SYSTEM/7. Various methods of simulation are examined and guidelines for computer simulation of another computer are established. The SYSTEM/7 simulator (SIM/7) is the heart of this thesis. SIM/7 simulates the IBM SYSTEM/7 entirely with software as opposed to an emulator which involves the combi… more
