  • The Genesis of the Mainframe Bob O. Evans
    The Genesis of the Mainframe Bob O. Evans 1 Introduction by Wilhelm G. Spruth In 1927 the German author Stefan Zweig published a short book labeled “Sternstunden der Menschheit” (world hours of mankind). In it he descripes 14 historical events that changed history forever. I have always believed the appearance of System /360 in 1964 has been such an event, changing the direction of the computer industry in more ways than anything else in the last 50 years. The design of the S/360 architecture is rightfully credited to Gene Amdahl, Gerry Blaauw and Fred Brooks. Bob O. Evans has been the IBM executive who made it happen. It is impossible to have met Bob O. Evans and not been impressed. He was forceful, decisive, intelligent, an excellent engineer with a broad vision, an uncanny capability to understand the most complex issues, and an outstanding leader for the people working for him. He also had an overpowering personality. I will be forever grateful for his guidance. In 2002 I learned Bob O. Evans had written his memoirs, had considered to publish them as a book, and had been adviced by his friends not to do so, because the text contained too much sensitive material. I contacted Evans and asked him if I could read the manuscript. He gracefully consented and e-mailed me a copy. Bob O. Evans died in 2004. I believe Bob O. Evans personal account of such a monumental event as the S/360 announcement should be made available. Thus in 2007 I asked his son Douglas B.
