Binary input/output processing in a digital computer

TLDR
In this article, a digital computer has a master clock for generating master clock pulses at a first frequency and a counter for counting secondary clock pulses having a frequency less than the frequency of the master clock.
Abstract
A digital computer has a master clock for generating master clock pulses at a first frequency and has a counter for counting secondary clock pulses having a frequency less than the frequency of the master clock pulses. The secondary clock pulses are counted and used in the assignment of real times to bytes of input data, and in the comparison of real times with desired output times assigned to binary output data.The input data preferably is placed in a FIFO stack and the output data in a self-sorting stack. The sorting in the output stack occurs between changes in count in the counter con-taining the secondary clock pulses.

Control system for resetting the print hammers of a printer

TL;DR: In this paper, a belt printer hammer resetting control system is described, which includes binary counting means (12) of the cyclic type, which permanently provides a binary word (Y, Z) comprising on the one hand, a time information (Y) taking the same value on every cycle and on the other hand a mask information (Z) changing of value on each cycle, storing means of the FIFO type forming a secondary instruction source (SSI) for simultaneously storing the binary word(Y, ~Z) obtained by complementing the mask information of the
