The C.mmp was an early multiprocessor system developed at Carnegie Mellon University is a private research university located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It was formed in 1967 by the union of the Carnegie Institute of Technology (which was Carnegie Technical Schools until 1912), founded in 1900 by Andrew Carnegie, and the Mellon Institute of Industrial Research, founded in 1917 by... Carnegie_Mellon_University by W.A.Wulf (1971). Basically, it consisted from several The PDP-11 was a 16-bit minicomputer sold by Digital Equipment Corp. in the 1970s and 1980s. The PDP-11 was a successor to DECs PDP-8 computer in the PDP series of computers. It had several uniquely innovative features, and was easier to program because it had... PDP-11 processors connected by custom built common memory. The operating system was called HYDRA. Among the programming languages available on this system was a subset of ALGOL 68 was conceived as a successor to the ALGOL 60 programming language, designed with the goal of a much wider scope of application and a more rigorously defined syntax and semantics. Contributions of ALGOL 68 to the field of computer science are deep and wide ranging, although some of... ALGOL_68. This language was in fact more a superset than a subset, as the features supporting parallelism were vastly improved. It was operated from a The PDP-10 was a computer manufactured by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) from the late 1960s on; the name stands for Programmed Data Processor model 10. It was the machine that made time-sharing common; it looms large in hacker folklore because of its adoption in the 1970s by many... PDP-10 multi-user system.
