A Proposed Military Standard "Automatically Processed Wiring Data and Diagrams"

Product reliability, costs, and schedules have been improved on some programs by the use of digital computers to process and print wiring and equipment lists. This paper describes a project completed this year for the U.S. Navy Bureau of Weapons by North American Aviation, Inc, Los Angeles Division which (1) extended the listings produced, (2), added the automatic production of pictorial wiring diagrams, and (3) prepared a proposed Military Standard - "Automatic Processing of Wiring Data and Diagrams." Evaluation is made of computer data processing and future growth potential is presented.
