Topic: FLEX (operating system)


  
  Disk operating system Summary
This was the primary operating system for this family from 1979 with the introduction of the floppy disk drive until 1983 with the introduction of ProDOS; many people continued using it long after that date.
The DOS operating system for DEC PDP-11 minicomputers (this OS and the computers it ran on were nearly obsolete by the time PCs became common, with various descendants and other replacements).
The best known family of operating systems named "DOS" is that running on IBM PCs type hardware using the Intel CPUs or their compatible cousins from other makers.

In microcomputers, SWTPC's 6800 and 6809 machines used TSC 's FLEX disk operating system, Radio Shack 's TRS-80 machines used TRS-DOS, their Color Computer used OS-9, and most of the Intel 8080 based machines from IMSAI, MITS (makers of the legendary Altair 8800), Cromemco, North Star, etc used the CP/M-80 disk operating system.
Operating systems can be categorized by technology (Unix-like or others such as Windows), ownership and license (proprietary or open source), working state (historic like DOS and OS/2 or current like Linux and Windows), application (general like Linux, Windows), desktop only (DOS, Apple), mainframe only (AIX), real-time or...

The FLEX operating system was developed by the company TSC for the Motorola 6800 in the 1970s.
It is a disk-based operating system with quite a few programming languages.
During the early 1980s, FLEX was offered by compusense ltd as an operating system for the 6809-based Dragon 64 home computer.

 What is Linux? - a definition from Whatis.com
Linux's kernel (the central part of the operating system) was developed by Linus Torvalds at the University of Helsinki in Finland.
To complete the operating system, Torvalds and other team members made use of system components developed by members of the Free Software Foundation for the GNU Project.
Linux is a remarkably complete operating system, including a graphical user interface, an X Window System, TCP/IP, the Emacs editor, and other components usually found in a comprehensive Unix system.

 Disk operating system
Most home computer DOS'es were stored on a floppy disk always to be booted at start-up, with the notable exception of Commodore, whose DOS resided on ROM chips in the disk drivess themselves, available at power-on.
In large machines there were other disk operating systems (eg, IBM's VM, DEC's RSTS / RT-11 / VMS / TOPS-10 / TWENEX, MIT's ITS / CTSS, Control Data's assorted NOS variants, Harris's Vulcan, Bell Labs' Unix, and so on.
In microsocmputers, SWTPC's 6800 and 6809 machines used TSC 's FLEX disk operating system, Radio Shack 's TRS-80 machines used TRS-DOS, their Color Computer used OS-9, and most of the Intel 8080 based machines from IMSAI, MITS (makers of the legendary Altair 8800), Cromemco, North Star, etc used the CP/M-80 disk operating system.

 Keller Publishing:
For all practical purposes, the other systems the customers have are not being supported by their IS groups, so logistics professionals in the organization do not have access to any kind of shipment tracking or report-writing capablities, so they lose some control of their logistics operation.
A lease-line operating 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, between the two facilities — one of Equate’s requirements for winning the contract — allows for a real-time transmission of the data into the Fritz FLEX system.
Once the booking is made, a pre-alert is generated by FLEX and transmitted to the end customer to let them know the materials that will be coming to them, and an on-board notification follows once the shipment is confirmed on board.

 An Introduction to Ten15
It is impossible to create (or forge) a capability without asking the system for a new object, and it is impossible to access memory that was not pointed to by one of the capabilities currently 'owned' by the program.
Flex was designed to be an integrated program development environment, but a variant was deployed for at least one embedded application.
As we have seen, the really unique design decision in Ten15 was for all the operations in the virtual machine to be strongly-typed, and to use strong-typing to provide the security that Flex had got by using micro-code enforced capabilities.

MIKBUG was also a mini-operating system that allowed you to display and change data in memory, dump memory to tape, load a program, display or change the contents of registers, and jump to and ex­ecute a program in memory.
Having the operating system in ROM was a break for them, but more soft­ware was essential.
Well, the lack of such a system hurt the sales of SWTPC systems just at a time when floppy disks were replacing cassettes all over the industry.
