  abstract =     "An interactive system has been developed which makes
                 it convenient to prepare, execute, and modify programs
                 for Turing, Post, or mixed machines. The system runs on
                 a Datapoint 2200 intelligent terminal with CRT display,
                 keyboard, and dual tape cassette drives. Machine type,
                 legal symbols, program or rules, 'tape' contents, and
                 other initial parameters are input from the keyboard
                 and shown on the display. During 'execution' the
                 sixty-four characters about the 'read head' are also
                 shown on the display and the speed of the execution can
                 be dynamically modified (including single-stepping) or
                 interrupted. Tape cassettes are used to make the 'tape'
                 of the machine effectively infinite relative to its
                 speed. Such pedagogical simulators should increase
                 understanding and/or reduce frustration for students
                 being introduced to these theoretical machines. They
                 can also be used to verify moderately complex
                 computations with such machines. This paper deals with
                 the organization, utilization, and possible extensions
                 of the system.",
