THE TRANSLATION OF ARITHMETIC OPERATIONS INTO SWITCHING OPERATIONS IN DIGITAL COMPUTER DESIGN
A 1952 technical report from the Electronics Research Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley, by Torben H. Meisling, written for engineers designing early digital computers and covering how arithmetic operations are converted into switching circuits. The pictures are schematic circuit diagrams drawn in clean black line, with diode gates, paired vacuum tubes in flip-flop arrangements, resistors, and capacitors; a designer might borrow their simple node-and-wire layout for diagrams of logic and switching systems.
