A program has been developed which provides the facility

to simulate the operation of a PDP-8 computer within a

Philco 212 computer. The system includes the ability to

assemble PDP-8 programs in assembly language, produce

paper tapes suitable for running on a PDP-8 and to

simulate the execution of a PDP-8 program completely within

the Philco 212. The simulation facility should be of use to

people who are anticipating the delivery of a PDP-8 computer,

and who wish to do program development before its arrival.

The simulator portion is written in Philco 212 assembly

language (it is not 211 compatible), and the remainder of

the system is written in the MAD langucge.

Write-up only available.
