It concentrates on those architectural while ensuring that the program cannot release the structures--whether hardware or software--that are information. necessary to support information protection.

Sperry Rand's Third-Generation Computers 1964–1980
Sperry Rand’s Third-Generation Computers 1964–1980 George T. Gray and Ronald Q. Smith The change from transistors to integrated circuits in the mid-1960s marked the beginning of third-generation computers. A late entrant (1962) in the general-purpose, transistor computer market, Sperry Rand Corporation moved quickly to produce computers using ICs. The Univac 1108’s success (1965) reversed the company’s declining fortunes in the large-scale arena, while the 9000 series upheld its market share in smaller computers. Sperry Rand failed to develop a successful minicomputer and, faced with IBM’s dominant market position by the end of the 1970s, struggled to maintain its position in the computer industry. A latecomer to the general-purpose, transistor would be suitable for all types of processing. computer market, Sperry Rand first shipped its With its top management having accepted the large-scale Univac 1107 and Univac III comput- recommendation, IBM began work on the ers to customers in the second half of 1962, System/360, so named because of the intention more than two years later than such key com- to cover the full range of computing tasks. petitors as IBM and Control Data.

AccessionIndex: TCD-SCSS-T.20121208.032 Accession Date: 8-Dec-2012 Accession By: Prof.J.G.Byrne Object name: Burroughs 1714 Vintage: c.1972 Synopsis: Commercial zero-instruction-set computer used by the Dept.Computer Science from 1973-1979. Just two prototyping boards survive. Description: The Burroughs 1714 was one of their B1700 family, introduced in 1972 to compete with IBM's System/3. The original research for the B1700 series, initially codenamed the Proper Language Processor or Program Language Processor (PLP) was done at the Burroughs Pasadena plant. The family were known as the Burroughs Small Systems, as distinct from the Burroughs Medium Systems (B2000, etc) and the Burroughs Large Systems (B5000, etc). All the Burroughs machines had high-level language architectures. The large were ALGOL machines, the medium COBOL machines, but the small were universal machines. The principal designer of the B1700 family was Wayne T. Wilner. He designed the architecture as a zero-instruction-set computer, an attempt to bridge the inefficient semantic gap between the ideal solution to a particular programming problem and the real physical hardware. The B1700 architecture executed idealized virtual machines for any language from virtual memory. It achieved this feat by microprogramming, see the microinstruction set further below. The Burroughs MCP (Master Control Program) would schedule a particular job to run, then preload the interpreter for whatever language was required into a writeable control store, allowing the machine to emulate the desired virtual machine. The hardware was optimised for this. It had bit-addressable memory, a variable-width ALU, could OR in data from a register into the instruction register (for very efficient instruction parsing), and the output of the ALU was directly addressable as X+Y or X-Y read-only registers. -

FROM News Bureau BURROUGHS CORPORATION Detroit, Michigan 48232 Phone: 875-2260, Ext. 2234 FOR RELEASE AUGUST 11, 1964 Burroughs Corporation announced today a new, modular electronic data processing system of advanced logical design -- the B5500 -- which has up to three times more productive capacity than the B5000. The powerful B5500 integrates fast new hardware with a unique automatic controlling and operating system, providing full real-time capabilities. Developed from proved-in-use design, the system is effective and econom.ical in both commercial and scientific applications. Demonstrations of the B5500 will begin in October at Burroughs ElectroData Manufacturing &: Engineering Division, Pasadena, Calif. Deliveries of the new system, which spans the medium to large scale computer range, will begin in six months. In announcing the new computer, Ray R. Eppert, Burroughs president, declared: "The extremely high productivity of the B5500 -- what we call 'throughput' -- results from the maximum utilization of new organization concepts in a balanced system that accomplishes more real work in a given period of time. "This is called rapid 'turn-around' by many B5000 users who have praised the speed with which the system can finish one job and get started on another," Eppert added. "The amount of work done, measured against the dollar investment, is what counts with the user. " The high "throughput" of the B 5500 is the product of four major abilities of the new system: - 2 - Multiprocessing techniques permit simultaneous handling of two or more programs. For example, while printing out the results of one job, the computer can perform computation on other, different problems and take in raw data on still another task. -
