Acrobat Distiller, Job 2
A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE IBM ES/9000, SYSTEM/390 AND zSERIES 1990 IBM makes its most comprehensive product announcement in 25 years by introducing the System/390 family consisting of 18 Enterprise System/9000 processors ranging from midrange computers for office environments to the most powerful computers IBM has ever offered. Featuring enhanced function and capability to manage information systems, the System/390 provides increased processing power, better network management, improved communication among multivendor systems and the Enterprise System/9000 processors. In many cases, customers currently using IBM Enterprise System/3090 systems can easily upgrade their systems to System/390 processors. Other 1990 announcements include: several networking products to make it easier for customers to use their midrange, desktop and System/390 computers to communicate with non-IBM computers. 1991 IBM unveils seven new Enterprise System/9000 processors and operating system software — Advanced Interactive Executive/Enterprise System Architecture (AIX/ESA) — for the System/390 family. AIX/ESA is a further step in IBM’s implementation of open-systems computing across its product line and is based on UNIX and the Open Software Foundation’s OSF/1 standards. The company begins shipping in volume and on schedule two top-of-the-line ES/9000 models that were announced in September 1990. IBM Japan says it will supply Enterprise System/9000 processors and operating system software to Mitsubishi Electric Corp. for remarketing. The agreement marks the first time IBM has sold large processors as an original equipment manufacturer for resale. 1992 IBM introduces two entry-level Enterprise System/9000 processors and ships five new Enterprise System/9000 water-cooled processors — Models 520, 640, 660, 740 and 860 — one-to-four months ahead of schedule. -

Rising IBM Mainframe Software Costs
Rising IBM Mainframe Software Costs By Kim A. Eckert, Certified IT Architect Rising IBM mainframe software costs started getting the attention of high level executives some years ago. This was partially due to realizing the software inventories analysis was inefficient and limited. In addition, a third party company was hired to review IBM Strategic Outsourcing (SO) account’s inventory. In other words, IBM was paying "green" dollars to save "blue" dollars! In order for the team to become competitive and provide extra value to our Integrated Technology Delivery (ITD) accounts, I architected an automated system that merged data from several sources and made it easy for the technical support teams to verify the inventory. Once the reports were produced, my team would analyze the data and make recommendations for cost take out opportunities. There were several issues surrounding software licensing and validation: 1. IBM only had tools that would report on what was installed on a customer’s machine then that output would be matched up to what was actually licensed. This approach had benefits as in ensuring they are paying for what they use, but did not do the opposite - ensuring they are actually using what they are paying for. 2. The only place to find where a product was superseded by another was either Announcement letters or the Dawn report web page. The Dawn report lists all monthly license type software and their replacement if available. For example, it would show 5647-A01 OS/390 is replaced by 5694-A01 z/OS. 3. End of Support information was only available through Announcement letters or the Lifecycle Support web page. -
CAD Software History, 1960S
History CAD software started its migration out of research and into commercial use in the 1970s. Just as in the late 1960s most CAD software continued to be developed by internal groups at large automotive and aerospace manufacturers, often working in conjunction with university research groups. Throughout the decade automotive manufacturers such as: Ford (PDGS), General Motors (CADANCE), Mercedes-Benz (SYRCO), Nissan (CAD-I released in 1977) and Toyota (TINCA released in 1973 by Hiromi Araki's team, CADETT in 1979 also by Hiromi Araki) and aerospace manufacturers such as: Lockheed (CADAM), McDonnell-Douglas (CADD) and Northrop (NCAD, which is still in limited use today), all had large internal CAD software development groups working on proprietary programs. Some of the mathematical description work on curves was developed in the early 1940s by Robert Issac Newton from Pawtucket, Rhode Island. CAD software uses either vector based graphics to depict the objects of traditional drafting, or may also produce raster graphics showing the overall appearance of designed objects. CAD is used in the design of tools and machinery and in the drafting and design of all types of buildings, from small residential types (houses) to the largest commercial and industrial structures (hospitals and factories). CAD is mainly used for detailed engineering of 3D models and/or 2D drawings of physical components. CAD stand for computer-aided design. Architects, drafters, engineers, and artists use CAD software to create plans and construction drawings. Computer Aided Design (CAD) is a form of design in which people work with computers to create ideas, models, and prototypes Most CAD software programs were still 2D replacements for drafting, with the main benefits to manufacturers being: i) reduced drawing errors, and, ii) increased reusability of drawings. -

Gestalt Manager 1
CHAPTER 1 Gestalt Manager 1 This chapter describes how you can use the Gestalt Manager and other system software facilities to investigate the operating environment. You need to know about the 1 operating environment if your application takes advantage of hardware (such as a Gestalt Manager floating-point unit) or software (such as Color QuickDraw) that is not available on all Macintosh computers. You can also use the Gestalt Manager to inform the Operating System that your software is present and to find out about other software registered with the Gestalt Manager. The Gestalt Manager is available in system software versions 6.0.4 and later. The MPW software development system and some other development environments supply code that allows you to use the Gestalt Manager on earlier system software versions; check the documentation provided with your development system. In system software versions earlier than 6.0.4, you can retrieve a limited description of the operating environment with the SysEnvirons function, also described in this chapter. You need to read this chapter if you take advantage of specific hardware or software features that may not be present on all versions of the Macintosh, or if you wish to inform other software that your software is present in the operating environment. This chapter describes how the Gestalt Manager works and then explains how you can ■ determine whether the Gestalt Manager is available ■ call the Gestalt function to investigate the operating environment ■ make information about your own hardware or software available to other applications ■ retrieve a limited description of the operating environment even if the Gestalt Manager is not available About the Gestalt Manager 1 The Macintosh family of computers includes models that use a number of different processors, some accompanied by a floating-point unit (FPU) or memory management unit (MMU). -
Creativity – Success – Obscurity
Author Gerry Pickering CREATIVITY – SUCCESS – OBSCURITY UNIVAC, WHAT HAPPENED? A fellow retiree posed the question of what happened. How did the company that invented the computer snatch defeat from the jaws of victory? The question piqued my interest, thus I tried to draw on my 32 years of experiences in the company and the myriad of information available on the Internet to answer the question for myself and hopefully others that may still be interested 60+ years after the invention and delivery of the first computers. Computers plural, as there were more than one computer and more than one organization from which UNIVAC descended. J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly, located in Philadelphia PA are credited with inventing the first general purpose computer under a contract with the U.S. Army. But our heritage also traces back to a second group of people in St. Paul MN who developed several computers about the same time under contract with the U.S. Navy. This is the story of how these two companies started separately, merged to become one company, how that merged company named UNIVAC (Universal Automatic Computers) grew to become a main rival of IBM (International Business Machines), then how UNIVAC was swallowed by another company to end up in near obscurity compared to IBM and a changing industry. Admittedly it is a biased story, as I observed the industry from my perspective as an employee of UNIVAC. It is also biased in that I personally observed only a fraction of the events as they unfolded within UNIVAC. This story concludes with a detailed account of my work assignments within UNIVAC.
