The TX-2 is the newest member of a growing family of experimental computers designed and constructed at the Lincoln Laboratory of M.I.T. as part of the Lincoln program for the study and development of large-scale, digital computer systems suitable for control in real time. Although, in general characteristics and design philosophy, it owes a great deal to its predecessors, Whirlwind I and the Memory Test Computer, the Lincoln TX-2 incorporates several new developments in components and circuits, memories, and logical organization. It is the purpose of this paper to summarize these new features and to give some idea of the historical development and general design objectives of the TX-2 program. Fig. 1 shows TX-2 in its present development stage.
