In addition to the main contract, there were related contracts between MIT and the US Department of Energy on which work was reported separately. The project deliverables consisted of the source code and test problems for the ASPEN system on computer tape and a final report. The User Manual (1348 pages, the System Administrator Manual (1170 pages), and the Technical Reference Manual (1026 pages), and On-Line Documentation (Computer-Generated Tables) on magnetic tape were deliverables on a related, but separate contract.
