Abstract

This paper reports an investigation being carried out by the Postmaster-General's Department into the network switching changes needed to make best use of a common control system in the Sydney telephone network. It describes the procedures involved in determining the junction circuit
arrangement for optimum disposal of the network telephone traffic for any given arrangement of tandem switching points in the network and the methods used to calculate the cost of providing switching equipment and junction circuits to cater for the traffic distribution. The use of the Sydney University electronic computer, SILLIAC, to carry out the large volume of
complex calculations is described, and the method of determining the optimum tandem layout for a large telephone network employing common control equipment is discussed.
