(Actually, the pig is an ex mascot, since the OA SIG switched to an eagle.) My friend is rather irate about the whole deal. "Here I spend years representing the SIG, and they up and dump me for a dude that can fly a little higher and faster and looks like Mom and Home and Apple pie." Oh well, that's show business. If any SIG or UIG is looking for a mascot, my friend is available. A couple of weekends ago we were at the Communication Committee woods meeting. As usual the newsletter managed to generate more than its share of discussion. Among other things, a task force was charged with coming up with a business plan for the newsletter. Hopefully if we have a better sense of direction for the newsletter, in terms of what it is and where it is going, we can do a better job of improving the product. Ve should have more stuff for you in subsequent issues. One of the nice things about woods meetings compared to the hectic schedules at national symposia is that you can spend some time socialising with people who are only a voice on the phone or a message over DCS the rest of the year. The hotel location and meeting rooms were very conducive to a good meeting, with the possible negative that the swimming pool was directly outside the room, and visible thru floor-to-ceiling windows. Ve haven't been as distracted at a CommComm meeting since we managed to get booked next to an international beer tasting convention a couple of years ago. One of the things we were glad to hear was the status of Judy Hulvey' s twins. If you read the November 88 GI message, we mentioned that Judy's twins were born prematurely at around 2 pounds each. Yell folks, the news is really good. Shannon Marie and Brendon Michael just celebrated their 1st birthday. For premies, the first birthday is a real milestone. Although they still have to visit their pediatrician a lot more than term babies, (mainly as a precautionary measure,) both babies are doing fine. This was also the first time that Judy left the twins for more than one day, and we are glad to report that she managed the withdrawal fine.

  • A Description of the Interleaf Publishing System
    IS WHAT YOU SEE ENOUGH TO GET ? A Description of the Interleaf Publishing System Robert A. Morris Interleaf, IncJ The University of Massachusetts at Boston2 Abstract. The author describes a commercial document preparation sys­ tem which integrates text and graphics capabilities, composes documents interactively in real time, and maintains screen fidelity while producing high quality output on laser printers and typesetters. I. Introduction The Interleaf Publishing System (IPS) is a family of related document preparation sys­ tems which run on workstations manufactured by Apollo Corp., Cadmus Computer Systems, Digital Equipment Corp., PCS gmbH, and Sun Microsystems. Interleaf is a reseller of Apollo, Digital, and Sun equipment, and sells complete turnkey systems on those workstations. The system drives 12 dot/mm (300 dot/inch) laser printers and typesetters. Presently supported printers include the Imagen 8/300 and the Dataproducts LZR2630, and the Monotype Lasercomp typesetter. In addition. Interleaf has announced that it will support RIPrint, PostScript and Interpress printers, and the Compugraphic 8600G, Autologic APS-Micro5G, Allied Linotype Linotronic 300 and Information International, Inc. typesetters. The IPS family ranges from the Workstation Publishing System (WPS), which runs on all the above-mentioned hosts and in some cases can be purchased from the worksta­ tion vendors, to the Technical Publishing System (TPS), which is available from Inter­ leaf on the stations it resells. The differences are essentially a matter of features, configuration and pricing. There is no performance degradation with use of the full TPS system, provided that it is run with larger memory when using the image process­ ing subsystem described below.

  • VAX VMS at 20
    1977–1997... and beyond Nothing Stops It! Of all the winning attributes of the OpenVMS operating system, perhaps its key success factor is its evolutionary spirit. Some would say OpenVMS was revolutionary. But I would prefer to call it evolutionary because its transition has been peaceful and constructive. Over a 20-year period, OpenVMS has experienced evolution in five arenas. First, it evolved from a system running on some 20 printed circuit boards to a single chip. Second, it evolved from being proprietary to open. Third, it evolved from running on CISC-based VAX to RISC-based Alpha systems. Fourth, VMS evolved from being primarily a technical oper- ating system, to a commercial operat- ing system, to a high availability mission-critical commercial operating system. And fifth, VMS evolved from time-sharing to a workstation environment, to a client/server computing style environment. The hardware has experienced a similar evolution. Just as the 16-bit PDP systems laid the groundwork for the VAX platform, VAX laid the groundwork for Alpha—the industry’s leading 64-bit systems. While the platforms have grown and changed, the success continues. Today, OpenVMS is the most flexible and adaptable operating system on the planet. What start- ed out as the concept of ‘Starlet’ in 1975 is moving into ‘Galaxy’ for the 21st century. And like the universe, there is no end in sight. —Jesse Lipcon Vice President of UNIX and OpenVMS Systems Business Unit TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER I Changing the Face of Computing 4 CHAPTER II Setting the Stage 6 CHAPTER
