Hi all, maybe someone here is interested in the FOSBIC (FORTRAN Simulated BASIC Interpretive Compiler) system. Background: This was developed, oder rather ported from UWBIC (University of Washington, Prog. W.H. Sharpe) in the mid 70s, by Prof Weber et al. at the German University of Gießen, for

Hi all, The PDF at https://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/intel/insite/1983_Insite_Users_Program_Library_Catalog.pdf lists various old user submitted software which could have been ordered from Intel those days. Is there anything of that archived and downloadable somewhere? Regards Holger

Hi, for some research on ancient Unix, I am interesting in finding the source code (tape, etc.) of the so-called "Newcastle connection", aka "UNIXes of the World Unite!" . See, for instance, https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/13f8/6c18fa780031d76b80f359d6670f9f3debdc.pdf or ftp://ftp.informati

You might look up Nick Tredennick's book "Microprocessor Logic Design: The Flowchart Method" which is sold at Amazon for an obscene price - but maybe some university library has a copy. It's focus is on a methodology for designing microcode, and it uses the design of the single chip 370 to expl

Looks as if the @ task, the indirect command processor, is either defective, or was not linked correctly for this system. Check the system generation manual; there are hints on how to replace it. This is for instance necessary for a sysgen (INS a /BIG version of it). If this fails, the TSK is br
