The authors acknowledge:

The authors wish to acknowledge the outstanding efforts of their many colleagues at Burroughs Laboratories who have contributed so well and in so many ways to all stages of D825 design, development, fabrication, and programming. It would be impossible to cite all of these efforts. The authors also wish to acknowledge the contributions of Mr. William R. Slack and Mr. William W. Carver, also of Burroughs Laboratories. Mr. Slack has been closely associated with the D825 from its original conception to its implementation in hardware and software. Mr. Carver made important contributions to the writing and editing of this paper.

The authors are pleased to acknowledge their indebtedness to the group at the Westinghouse Electric Corporation that initiated the parallel computer effort. The work of W. C. Borck, A. B. Carroll, J. R. Hudson, W. H. Leonard, R. C. McReynolds, and G. Shapiro formed the basis for the subsequent efforts. Of particular importance is the work of J. G. Gregory in tuning the conceptual design to the real world of technology.

The efforts and contributions of many people have gone into the engineering design of the Stretch computer. To mention all would be impossible. However, the following individuals and their groups were responsible for the units indicated; Mr. R. T. Blosk for the Instruction Unit, Mr. J. F. Dirac for the Look-ahead Units, Messrs. J. A. Hipp and 0. L. MacSorley for the Arithmetic Units, and Mr. L. 0. Ulfsparre for the Memory Bus. The Systems Development was under the guidance of Messrs. S. W. Dunwell and R. E. Merwin.
