ABSTRACT
Considerable discussion has been generated concerning the use of binary computers for purely data processing functions rather than decimally oriented machines. The purpose of this paper is to present a case for the use of binary machines for data processing based on our experience at Chrysler.
Based on experience gained by the Chrysler Corporation, the paper discusses the need for the establishment of a consistency of concept for all phases of problem organization and solution.
Specific advantages inherent in binary machines are pointed out, along with some of the pitfalls which would result if the consistency of concept is not maintained.
In their treatment of this subject, the authors also sound a warning to those concerned with the development and use of generalized business oriented languages that certain abilities of binary machines have not been exploited in these programs.
In their conclusion, the authors state that the abilities of binary-type machines will become more indispensable as management techniques, extant today, become more sophisticated and acceptable.

Perfect binary codes: constructions, properties, and enumeration
Properties of nonlinear perfect binary codes are investigated and several new constructions of perfect codes are derived from these properties. An upper bound on the cardinality of the intersection of two perfect codes of length n is presented, and ...
On non-antipodal binary completely regular codes
Binary non-antipodal completely regular codes are characterized. Using a result on nonexistence of nontrivial binary perfect codes, it is concluded that there are no unknown nontrivial non-antipodal completely regular binary codes with minimum distance ...
Bilinear dual hyperovals from binary commutative presemifields
For a binary commutative presemifield S with an element c ź S , we can construct a bilinear dual hyperoval S c ( S ) if c satisfies some conditions. Let c 1 ź S 1 and c 2 ź S 2 for commutative presemifields S 1 and S 2 , and assume c 1 ź 1 or c 2 ź 1 . ...
