Abstract

The design of circuits for computers has become in recent years a complex undertaking. The problem is two-fold. On one hand optimization of cost and speed is the prime objective. On the other hand, complexity is increased through factors such as component characteristics and life expectancy, manufacturing techniques, and the suppression of noise in very large systems. The complexity makes the use of computers as an aid to design almost imperative; this was the case in the design of circuits for Univac Larc.
