Abstract

1,039,141. Programmed computers. BRITISH PETROLEUM CO. Ltd., and P. V. SLEE and P. M. J. HARRIS. May 15, 1963 [May 21, 1962], No. 19463/62. Heading G4A. A computer comprising quick-access storage, slow-access storage and an arithmetic unit, is arranged to solve automatically a linear programming problem by means of an iterative algorithm whereby it (a) transfers data representations from the slow-access to the quick-access storage, (b) transfers a suitable portion of data representations, as it becomes available by transference as specified in (a), back and forth, without intermediate transfer to slow-access storage, between the quick-access storage and the arithmetic unit where the portion is processed in accordance with at least two iterations of the iterative algorithm during at least one performance of process (b), and (c) returns the processed portion to slow-access storage. The Specification is confined to a description of the programming method (also disclosed in Specification 1,039,142) which is applicable to any general-purpose digital computer.
