In the PC-DOS arena NetBIOS provides a consistent interface for communi­ cation systems using IBM, XNS, TCp, IEEE and OSI protocols, among others. As we networkers migrate our systems to new protocols such as OSI, to new LAN operating systems such as the OS/2 LAN Manager, and to new hardware platforms such as the PS/2 and Macintosh II, NetBIOS's importance expands.

When it was first snipped, the Altair consisted of a metal box with, a panel of switches for input and output, a power supply, and-two boards. One board was the CPU.. At its heart was the 8-bit 8080 microprocessor chip from InteL The other board provided 256 bytes of memory. The Altair had no keyboard, no monitor, and no permanent storage. But it had a revolutionary price tag. It cost $397. For the first time, the term "personal computer" acquired a real-world meaning. The real world of the Altair was not, however, the world of business computing. It was-primarily the world of the computer hobbyist These first users of the microcomputer were not as interested in using spreadsheets and word processors as they were in programming. Accordingly, the first soft- ware for the Altair was a programming language. And the company that developed it was a two-man firm, in Albuquerque, called Microsoft FEB The two men at MiCTosof^ej^PailjAJten^and Bffl Gates-Allen and 1975 Gates-had met when-they were both students at Lakeside High School in Microsoft sails first BASIC to Seattle, where they began their computer-science education oa the school's MITS lor Altair time-sharing terminal By the time Gates had graduated, me two of them had computer.

Distribution unlimited. JPO approval signature on file. Software Engineering Institute Carnegie Mellon University Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15213 Foreword Each spring, the SEI Education Program publishes the SEI Software Engineering Education Directory, which summarizes undergraduate and graduate courses in software engineering taught at United States and Canadian colleges and universities. This annual survey, the only one of its kind, serves as a directory for potential students seeking information about where they might study software engineering. The survey is useful to industry and government recruiters in evaluating the background of job candidates. The teamwork and energy of Allison Brunvand, Albert Johnson, Bill McSteen, Jack Poller, Mark Schmick, and Barbara Zayas were, in large part, responsible for the successful completion of this edition. Gary Ford, Senior Computer Scientist, spent much time editing entries into final form. The Information Management staff of the SEI were helpful in developing its attractive layout. We extend our thanks to them and all others who aided this effort. Norman E. Gibbs Director of Education Software Engineering Institute Software Engineering Education Directory Abstract: This directory provides information about software engineering courses and software engineering degree programs that are available in the United States and Canada.

The DLF partners have committed them- selves to “bring together—from across the nation and beyond—digitized materials that will be made accessible to students, scholars, and citizens everywhere.” If they are to succeed in reaching their goals, all DLF partici- pants realize that they must act quickly to build the infra- structure and the institutional capacity to sustain digital libraries.
