Has anyone a good reference for error checking on ALU operations? I remember reading about error checking in the IBM 360/67. The typical pipelined machine of my youth, the CDC 7600, had no such checking. It is really fun to be in a central service bureau the day you discover that your F.P. operations have been broken for the last three days :-) Hugh LaMaster, m/s 233-9, UUCP ames!lamaster NASA Ames Research Center ARPA lamaster@ames.arc.nasa.gov Moffett Field, CA 94035 Phone: (415)694-6117
