    Oral History Panel on the Development and Promotion of the Zilog Z8000 Microprocessor Moderator: Michael Slater Panelists: Federico Faggin Bernard Peuto Masatoshi Shima Ralph Ungermann Recorded: April 27, 2007 Mountain View, California CHM Reference number: X4022.2007 © 2007 Computer History Museum Michael Slater: We have with us today [April 27, 2007] four people who were involved in its [Zilog Z8000 microprocessor] creation: Ralph Ungermann, Bernard Peuto, Federico Faggin, and Masatoshi Shima. We’ve heard about the backgrounds from Shima-san, Federico and Ralph in the previous tape [oral history by the Z80 team], so we’ll start with Bernard. Could you tell us about your educational background, your experience before you came to this project? Bernard Peuto: Yes. I was born in France where I got an engineering education in radio and in computers in 1967 and 1968. I came to Berkeley to do a Ph.D. In 1969, I had my Master of Arts from Berkeley in computer science and I passed my prelim. I went back to do my military duties and then I came back and got a Ph.D. in computer science in 1974. My dissertation was about memory protection, which will come back as a subject later. As my first job I joined Amdahl Corporation from 1973 to 1976. The reason I joined Amdahl Corporation was that Charlie Bass was sharing an office with me when he was an assistant professor at Berkeley and I was a Ph.D. student and Charlie Bass had a good friend of his that was working at Fujitsu so through that connection I was hired as a computer architect at Amdahl Corporation.

  • Learning to Code
    PART ILEARNING TO CODE How Important is Programming? “To understand computers is to know about programming. The world is divided… into people who have written a program and people who have not.” Ted Nelson, Computer Lib/Dream Machines (1974) How important is it for you to learn to program a computer? Since the introduction of the first digital electronic computers in the 1940s, people have answered this question in surprisingly different ways. During the first wave of commercial computing—in the 1950s and 1960s, when 1large and expensive mainframe computers filled entire rooms—the standard advice was that only a limited number of specialists would be needed to program com- puters using simple input devices like switches, punched cards, and paper tape. Even during the so-called “golden age” of corporate computing in America—the mid- to late 1960s—it was still unclear how many programming technicians would be needed to support the rapid computerization of the nation’s business, military, and commercial operations. For a while, some experts thought that well-designed computer systems might eventually program themselves, requiring only a handful of attentive managers to keep an eye on the machines. By the late 1970s and early 1980s, however, the rapid emergence of personal computers (PCs), and continuing shortages of computer professionals, shifted popular thinking on the issue. When consumers began to adopt low-priced PCs like the Apple II (1977), the IBM PC (1981), and the Commodore 64 (1982) by the millions, it seemed obvious that ground-breaking changes were afoot. The “PC Revolution” opened up new frontiers, employed tens of thousands of people, and (according to some enthusiasts) demanded new approaches to computer literacy.

  • Programmable Digital Microcircuits - a Survey with Examples of Use
    - 237 - PROGRAMMABLE DIGITAL MICROCIRCUITS - A SURVEY WITH EXAMPLES OF USE C. Verkerk CERN, Geneva, Switzerland 1. Introduction For most readers the title of these lecture notes will evoke microprocessors. The fixed instruction set microprocessors are however not the only programmable digital mi• crocircuits and, although a number of pages will be dedicated to them, the aim of these notes is also to draw attention to other useful microcircuits. A complete survey of programmable circuits would fill several books and a selection had therefore to be made. The choice has rather been to treat a variety of devices than to give an in- depth treatment of a particular circuit. The selected devices have all found useful ap• plications in high-energy physics, or hold promise for future use. The microprocessor is very young : just over eleven years. An advertisement, an• nouncing a new era of integrated electronics, and which appeared in the November 15, 1971 issue of Electronics News, is generally considered its birth-certificate. The adver• tisement was for the Intel 4004 and its three support chips. The history leading to this announcement merits to be recalled. Intel, then a very young company, was working on the design of a chip-set for a high-performance calculator, for and in collaboration with a Japanese firm, Busicom. One of the Intel engineers found the Busicom design of 9 different chips too complicated and tried to find a more general and programmable solu• tion. His design, the 4004 microprocessor, was finally adapted by Busicom, and after further négociation, Intel acquired marketing rights for its new invention.

  • 2.19 Historical Perspective and Further Reading 2.19
    2.19 Historical Perspective and Further Reading 2.19 This section surveys the history of instruction set architraves over time, and we give a short history of programming languages and compilers. ISAs include accu- mulator architectures, general-purpose register architectures, stack architectures, and a brief history of the IA-32. We also review the controversial subjects of high- level-language computer architectures and reduced instruction set computer architectures. The history of programming languages includes Fortran, Lisp, Algol, C, Cobol, Pascal, Simula, Smalltalk, C++, and Java, and the history of com- pilers includes the key milestones and the pioneers who achieved them. Accumulator Architectures accumulator:Archaic term for register. On-line use of it Hardware was precious in the earliest stored-program computers. Consequently, as a synonym for “register” is computer pioneers could not afford the number of registers found in today’s a fairly reliable indication machines.

Having the accumulator as both a source operand and as the destination of the operation fills part of the shortfall, but it still leaves us one operand short. That final operand is found in memory.

    Code Nation explores the rise of software development as a social, cultural, and technical phenomenon in American history. The movement germinated in government and university labs during the 1950s, gained momentum through corporate and counterculture experiments in the 1960s and 1970s, and became a broad-based computer literacy movement in the 1980s. As personal computing came to the fore, learning to program was transformed by a groundswell of popular enthusiasm, exciting new platforms, and an array of commercial practices that have been further amplified by distributed computing and the Internet. The resulting society can be depicted as a “Code Nation”—a globally- connected world that is saturated with computer technology and enchanted by software and its creation. Code Nation is a new history of personal computing that emphasizes the technical and business challenges that software developers faced when building applications for CP/M, MS-DOS, UNIX, Microsoft Windows, the Apple Macintosh, and other emerging platforms. It is a popular history of computing that explores the experiences of novice computer users, tinkerers, hackers, and power users, as well as the ideals and aspirations of leading computer scientists, engineers, educators, and entrepreneurs. Computer book and magazine publishers also played important, if overlooked, roles in the diffusion of new technical skills, and this book highlights their creative work and influence. Code Nation offers a “behind-the-scenes” look at application and operating-system programming practices, the diversity of historic computer languages, the rise of user communities, early attempts to market PC software, and the origins of “enterprise” computing systems. Code samples and over 80 historic photographs support the text.
