ASC-15 for Titan III

Looking at the speed calculation in this section:

The speed was the same as for the Titan II: 100 revolutions/second × 64 words/revolution × 27 bits/word = 172.8 kilobits/second.

...it seems to me to assume that 1) data words could be read (or written?) at the full speed of the drum; and 2) only one data track could be read/written at once. Do any of the references support this? —Eric S. Smith (talk) 15:23, 7 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How a "jump" instruction worked.

I was an electrical engineer in the AF from '69 to '72. I was educated as a computer programmer so I took an interest in how the computer worked. If I remember correctly the instructions were executed as the drum turned. When it was time to "jump" the system would wait until the heads came over the object of the "jump" then simply switched tracks accordingly and execution would pickup at the object of the "jump".

Can someone verify that I remember that correctly?
