Boolean representations of real numbers are introduced and logical intrinsic computer functions are used to achieve algebraic operations of the finite difference algorithm. In a first step the method is briefly explained and then implementation is described. For diffusion or convection problems, preliminary computations on a Cray-XMP18 and on a network of T800 Transputers were done." }
