Abstract: The succession of digital program steps in typical hybrid analog digital computer simulations is so similar to the stepwise solution of differential-equation systems that well-established continuoussystem-simulation languages, and especially interactive digital simulation systems, can serve as excellent hybridcomputer software with little modification. In particular, the block-diagram-oriented DARE II simulation language can control the ultra-fast LOCUST analog computer to produce unprecendented hybrid execution speed while still permitting quite simple programming. Examples include iterative optimization, computation of hybrid-computer Monte Carlo statistics, and digital two-variable function generation in a hybrid-computer loop.
