Requirements for the operation of the Exponent Arithmetic Unit during multiplication, integer multiplication, and division were established. The core storage memory organization was completed. Tests run on both controls for the test unit revealed the necessity of modifying the speed independent control design to provide mutually exclusive UP and POWN gates and to incorporate the new driver system. A flow gating read-in driver with a minimum input signal requirement of plus or minus 1.5 v and an upper bound of plus or minus 3.S v was designed. The application of the Illiac program, SIR KITTSOLVER, to a wide variety of circuits is discussed. Descriptions of four new routines which were added to the Illiac library are given. (C.J.G.)
