Two designs for the logic of a speed-independent adder were completed for high-speed computers. One logic utilizes diode matrix logic, the other one uses AID-OR complexes. A workable design of a subcontrol system for a high-speed computer was achieved. Modifications to the core storage unit and a driver circuit are reported. The theoretical background of flow-gating action and transistor transients was re-examined. A 250-base driver was designed and tested. The six new routines added to the Illiac library are described and the monthly uses of IIliac discussed. The addition and revision of two routines to the IBM 650 library are discussed. (C.J.G.)
