The PACE Scaling Routine for Mercury

W. G. Proctor and M. F. Mitchell

U.K.E.A., Risley, Warrington, Lancs., UK

A description is given of a digital computer routine that will scale and process a system of first-order differential equations into a form suitable for programming an analogue computer. The routine also produces a check voltage for each scaled differential equation; this ensures that the equation has been set up correctly on the analogue. The use of the routine eliminates much of the time-consuming debugging of the analogue set-up, since the errors due to hand computation are eliminated. A full description of the routine is given from the analogue computer programmer's viewpoint.
