	Dartmouth Time Sharing System - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Dartmouth Timesharing System, or DTSS for short, was the first large-scale time-sharing system to be implemented successfully.
		Its implementation began at Dartmouth College in 1963 by a student team under the direction of John Kemeny and Thomas Kurtz with the aim of providing easy access to computing facilities for all members of the college.
		This method of editing was necessary because of the use of teletypes as the terminal units for the Dartmouth Timesharing system.

		Sometimes a version control system and various tools to simplify the construction of a GUI are integrated as well.
		Its IDE, part of the Dartmouth timesharing system, was command-based in contrast to modern menu-based IDEs.
		This interface has been popularized with the LEGO Mindstorms system, and is being actively pursued by a number of companies wishing to capitalize on the power of custom browsers like those found at Mozilla and the power of distributed programming (cf.

		Our focus will be on the Dartmouth requirement for a "culminating experience," which is a significant independent project students are required to complete during their fourth year in their major discipline.
		As early as 1976, during the days of Dartmouth timesharing, assessment research was conducted ("Computing as a Matter of Course: The Instructional Use of Computers at Dartmouth College").
		Among his current projects at Dartmouth are participation on the library and computing building committees and chairmanship of the subcommittee on classrooms.

		The people who did the 940 at UCB started Berkeley Computer Corporation and produced one prototype of their BCC500 system, which was moved to the University of Hawaii after BCC folded, and many of the people formed the core of the computer group at PARC.
		Dartmouth produced their BASIC timesharing system in the mid 60's, about the same time as GENIE.
		Smallish timesharing systems were also produced which included TSS/8 for the PDP-8, which was inspired by a phd thesis Gordon Bell supervised at CMU, which sort of evolved into RSTS (originally called EDUSYSTEM 100) and RSTS/E. Previous message: HP 9915A

	Rob Pike on the irrelevance of systems research
		Academics didn't care if their systems were used in the past, but now they seem to.
		Pike says that much of systems research today is focused on metrics, or as he says, "Performance minutae and bad charts." To this, I say, amen.
		Graydon is trying to put a happy face to things but in my view a decay to systems research is truly afoot, which is evident from desintegration of structures, such as IEEE TCOS.

		Reloading the system was annoying, and in the new generation of transistorized machines introduced around 1960, the hardware included protection mechanisms that made it impossible for an application to corrupt the system.
		B5000 systems were sold in multiprocessor configurations, and later members of the Burroughs family of mainframes were routinely sold with from 2 to 6 CPU's.
		The Atlas system had a paged model of memory, with a completely developed concept of page fault handling to allow all of the paging drum to be addressed as if it was main memory, and with most of main memory used as a cache to hold pages from drum.

	Wellesley College Instructional Technology Home Page
		From 1973 to 1977 the sole source of computing resources for academic use was the Dartmouth TimeSharing System (DTSS) which was accessed via six rented teletypewriter terminals located in the basement of Green Hall.
		In many cases the off-the-shelf graphics-oriented instructional software (some even in color!) available for microcomputers was superior to that available for general time-sharing systems, so over time much of the instructional software on Wellesley's timesharing computer fell into disuse as individual faculty and departments acquired their own PCs and software.
		It also put a tremendous strain of the support staff in that it was no longer enough to know the ins and outs of the central timesharing system; one also needed to master various PC operating systems and applications software.

		In such a system the processing time of the main computer is "sliced up" and each user is given a small amount in alternation.
		In theory, timesharing reduced the cost of computing tremendously, as a single machine could be shared among hundreds of users.
		The original BASIC language was invented in 1963 by John Kemeny (1926–93) and Thomas Kurtz (1928–) at Dartmouth College and implemented by a team of Dartmouth students under their direction.

		It is so-called because it was designed and implemented at Dartmouth College.
		It was designed by John Kemeny and Thomas Kurtz as part of the Dartmouth timesharing system (DTSS) and was the one of the first programming languages intended to be used interactively.
		These commands were often believed to be part of the BASIC language by users but in fact they were part of the time sharing system and were also used when preparing Algol or FORTRAN programs via the DTSS terminals.

		The GE-265 that was the system running the first commercial time-sharing system is the association of a GE-235 processor and of a Datanet-30 communication processor.
		The software was designed at Dartmouth College as DTSS in 1963-1964.While BASIC was the main programming language created for that system, it was also used in ALGOL and Fortran.
		A peculiarity of the DTSS was that the main part of the operating system was resident in the DN-30 front-end processor and that only the user programs and their environment (e.g.the BASIC interpreter) were executed in the GE-235.

		DEC had written a language called Focal, a marvelous interactive version of Algol; however, Dartmouth was promoting the use of Basic on the Dartmouth timesharing system (DTSS) and this was the best known project providing terminals to secondary schools.
		When packaged systems came along in 1978, it shifted again with the market and covered the most popular applications--games and graphics.

		He began professional life as an academic, hired first at NYU, then at Rutgers University, and finally at Dartmouth, Hanover, NH, where he became familiar with computing by using the Dartmouth Timesharing System, a precursor of Unix and other modern operating systems.
		In 1981, he left academic work to design and build his own house, and when that was completed in 1983, began a second career in computing.

		BASIC (Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) is a programming language, originally designed for Dartmouth's experimental timesharing system in the early 1960s.
		When microcomputers first came out, BASIC was one of the few languages small enough to run on them.
		On many microcomputers, a BASIC interpreter was installed on ROM, and served as a default operating system.
