	System/360 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Being somewhat uncertain of the reliability and availability of the then new monolithic integrated circuits, IBM chose instead to design custom hybrid integrated circuits using discrete flip chip mounted glass encapsulated transistors and diodes with silk screened resistors on a ceramic substrate, then either encapsulated in plastic or covered with a metal lid.
		The IBM 1130 was a low cost computer system based on the System/360 SLT approach, which was sometimes used as a remote job entry system for the System/360.
		The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration operated the IBM 9020, a special cluster of modified System/360s for air traffic control, from 1970 until the 1990s.

		The IBM 604 was a plug-board programmable Electronic Calculating Punch introduced in 1948, and was a machine on which considerable expectations for the future of IBM were pinned and in which a corresponding amount of planning talent was invested.
		An IBM 7040 in operation from 1964 to 1974 at the German university Technische Hochschule Darmstadt The IBM 7040, a scaled down version of the IBM 7090 introduced by IBM in April, 1963, was a later member of the IBM 700/7000 series of scientific computers.
		IBM 7090 console The IBM 7090 a second-generation transistorized version of the earlier IBM 709 vacuum tube mainframe computers and was designed for "large-scale scientific and technological applications", was the third member of the IBM 700/7000 series scientific computers.

	IBM History and Stanford
		At the time of the appearance of the IBM 360-series most computing was centralized and operated by the Stanford Computation Center, which consisted of three facilities: a `Campus facility', an operation at SLAC, with eventually an IBM 360-91, and a system, ACME, running a 360-50 dedicated to real-time computing in the Medical School.
		At IBM the successor for the 7700 was the IBM 1800, and one of those mchines was in use in the medical school ACME project in 1967.
		IBM 360-50 system as its main computer, an IBM 1800 for data acquisition and distribution, IBM 2701 interfaces for various laboratory computers, and a home-built network for terminals in the laboratories.

		(The Model 20 was well-suited to smaller businesses — it had the IBM name and salesforce but not all the "bells and whistles.") The most historically significant model was the 360/67, first shipped in August, 1966.
		S/360 machines were also heavily used in the Apollo project.) Fortune Magazine at the time referred to the project as IBM's "$5 billion gamble," and they were right.
		(The idea of a major breakthrough with FS technology was dropped in the mid-1970s by IBM for cost, efficiency, and continuity reasons.) Later compatible systems include the competing Amdahl 470 family, IBM's own, the IBM System/390 family, and most recently (and currently) the IBM zSeries.

		Using the 9020 control panel any of the actual processors' data channels and control flows could be checked and, if needed, taken off-line.
		The 9020 control system had a a 32-bit data path, 32 control switches, and dials to select the computers and channels for display and control, although the 360-65 computational units themselves had a 64-bit data path.
		The life of the FAA 9020 system extended well beyond the life span of other IBM 360 systems, which were discontinued in 1977.

	IBM 9020
		The IBM 9020 refers to IBM System/360 computers that adapted for use by the U.S. for enroute Air Traffic Control in its 20 Air Route Traffic Control Centers beginning in the late 1960s.
		The 3083's in turn were replaced with IBM 9672 RA4 parallel processing servers during the FAA's Host and Oceanic Computer System Replacement (HOCSR) completed in 1999.
		One reason for the 1999 upgrade was concerns, probably unfounded, that the IBM 3083's microcode would not operate properly in the year 2000.

		In April 1964, IBM announced OS/360, an operating system developed to support the new generation and architecture of System/360 hardware - hardware capable of supporting both commercial and scientific applications.
		I believe that the term "360" was coined by IBM to express their ambition to encompass the customers' needs at a 360-degree angle.
		In 1971, IBM released the time-sharing option (TSO), which became an integral part of the operating system.

		IBM assigned him to the computing facility at X-10 in Oak Ridge where he worked on the IBM Model 75 and also keypunches, etc. on the site.
		After the Army, Louis transferred to the IBM plant in Kingston NY, where his first assignment was helping with the design of the FAA En route Air Traffic Control System CPU (IBM 9020).

		The new plan included the host computer system that would replace the existing IBM 9020 computers (derivatives of the IBM System/360") in the en route air traffic control centers, and the advanced automation system that would upgrade the host computer system and the terminal approach control (TRACON) and tower facilities.
		For example, a recently completed project' moved the applications of the national airspace en route system from an IBM 9020 to an IBM System/370 host computer system.
		The re-engineered system was tested by verifying its functional equivalence to the original IBM 9020 version.

		The contract, initially for $2.5 billion, was awarded to IBM Corp.'s Federal Systems Division in 1988, with the expectation that the first group of workstations would be installed in Seattle, Wash., in 1992.
		IBM was charged with giving at least minimal system functions a 99.99999 percent availability--3 seconds of downtime a year.
		The problem, Phelps indicated, is that these systems use old sensors and underpowered computers (equivalent to an IBM XT), and they have a narrow range of observation--they look straight up in a circle with a diameter of 10 feet at an altitude of 25 000 feet.

		IBM implemented virtula machines (VM's) before the above was implemented - the upgrade strategy that IBM used to move customers to the 360 was to provide VM's for each of the machines that IBM wanted to replace - eg., those 1401 somethings or another.

		Automation of en route ATC began with the installation of IBM's prototype 9020 system at the Jacksonville Center in 1967.
		However, indicative of the complex nature of automating the en route environment, the 9020 system proved to be the most complex computer application in the world at the time, with more than half a million commands.
		When the program was completed, IBM had more than doubled the amount of memory the company had first thought the program would require.
