Abstract :
The possibilities of establishing digital-differential-analyser structures possessing both high solution accuracies and automatic scaling are examined. Two such structures are given, together with their performance characteristics. The second of these, the dynamic-increment digital differential analyser, introduces the concept of a digital differential analyser with the length of its incremental output dynamically varying during the solution process.
