George Botseas, Potter,David, Clair Becker · Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) · 1970
The Univac 1230 General Purpose Digital Computer, Serial 62, contains a special purpose auxiliary memory comprised of sixty-four 30-bit words. This memory area, commonly referred to as Wired Bootstrap Memory, is divided into two groups of thirty-two words each. Each group of words has been wired to contain a special purpose LOAD program which may be used to enter other programs such as COMPBOOT, UPAC and SLUPAK into the computer. These LOAD programs, which operate in a non-destructive readout mode, and are selectable by operation of the BOOTSTRAP PROGRAM switch, are known as Wired Bootstraps I and II. Wired Bootstrap I, better known as the Paper Tape Bootstrap, is described in NUSL Technical Memorandum No. 2211-95-69. This memorandum is devoted to Wired Bootstrap II.
