Data are concurrently recorded on disk by one minicomputer and accessed by another, using format of memory blocks, buffering algorithm, and time-sequence addressing. Buffering algorithm works at data rates up to 68,000 words per second; modifications up rate to 160,000 words per second.

Compiler validates units and dimensions

Software added to compiler for automated test system for Space Shuttle decreases computer run errors by providing offline validation of engineering units used system command programs. Validation procedures are general, though originally written for GOAL, a free-form language that accepts "English-like" statements, and may be adapted to other programming languages.
