✦ Synopsis

A microcomputer stimulator for routine and research use in cardiac pacing is described. Emphasis is given to software aspects of the design including both the user-computer interface and the computer-patient interface and the multitasking features of the operating system. The main programming language is FORTRAN. Assembly language is used where speed of control or precise timing are necessary. The microcomputer supplies the intelligence to control an external isolated stimulation unit which is connected to the patient. The system is used to investigate the efficacy of cardiac pacing for the termination of arrhythmias, in the testing of cardiac electrophysiological function and for other research involving cardiac stimulation.

This paper describes a suite of robust logit-log optimization routines for the fitting of a linear relation to laboratory data. The microcomputer routines assign a weighting value to each data point corresponding to the relative importance of that point. This procedure ensures that the routines iden
