DECUS Proceedings

This document contains the proceedings of the Fall 1965 DECUS Symposium. It includes papers covering diverse topics such as:

• Simulation and Control: Presentations on the PDP-1 GRASP graphics-assisted simulation program and direct digital control for particle accelerators using the PDP-5.
• Hybrid Systems: Trends in hybrid computer-oriented software, including the SPOUSE, MAID, TAOIST, and FOCHUS systems.
• Nuclear Physics Data: Use of PDP-4, PDP-7, and PDP-8 computers for data acquisition and on-line reduction in nuclear physics research.
• Behavioral Research: Applications of the LINC computer for operant conditioning and a message switching system using the PDP-5 for behavioral game experiments.
• System Development: Discussions on the ALICS assembly language and advancements in the DECAL compiler.
• Time Sharing: Implementation details and future plans for time-sharing on the PDP-6.

The document also provides the symposium schedule, an author/speaker index, and an attendance list.
