  Master Control Program - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Master Control Program (MCP) is the operating system of the B5000 and its successors (the Bnm00 series, A Series of the 1980s, to today's Unisys ClearPath machines).
The MCP was also the first open-source OS whose source code could be scrutinized and enhanced by customers, this being enabled by the readability of the high-level code (although the source is proprietary).
The MCP was the first commercial OS to provide virtual memory and this was supported by the B5000 hardware (for a description of how the virtual memory works, see the B5000 entry).

 Device and method for molding optical components - Patent 6592785
The master control unit 17 recognizes the four-bit code 41 signals transmitted from the read sensor 18, and determines the distance the air-pressure driving unit 15c at the heating/pressing section 15 is to be lowered as well as other molding parameters to be controlled.
At the heating/pressing section 15, a predetermined high temperature is maintained by the heating unit 15a under control of the temperature sensor 15b relaying the temperature to the master control unit 17.
In such a control method, a pressure sensor may provide information to the heating/pressing section and a timer (implemented either with hardware or software) may be used to provide information to the master control unit.

The Master Control Program (MCP) was the operating system of the (additional info and facts about B5000) B5000 and its successors (the Bnm00 series, A Series of the 1980s, to today's Unisys ClearPath machines).
The MCP's role is to manage the resources of a system, providing controlled access to those resources (security) and to provide common services for programs running on that system.
The MCP was also the first OS whose sourcecode could be scrutinized by the interested public, this being enabled by the readability of the high-level code (although the source is proprietary).

 MASTER CONTROL PROGRAM FACTS AND INFORMATION
In 1961, the MCP was the first OS written exclusively in a high-level_language (HLL) and it probably still is the only OS written exclusively in an HLL, since other systems use assembler for small parts.
The MCP was also the first open-source OS whose source_code could be scrutinized and enhanced by customers, this being enabled by the readability of the high-level code (although the source is proprietary).
The MCP was the first commercial OS to provide virtual_memory and this was supported by the B5000 hardware (for a description of how the virtual memory works, see the B5000 entry).

Such code may be written in an MCP program when it is not desirable to have a task wait, but because of the operator-level recoverability, this is not forced and therefore makes programming much simpler.

Whenever the system is executing the master control program, it is said to be in the Control State.
All entries to the Control State are made via "interrupts." A special operation is provided, which can only be executed when the system is in the Control State, to permit control to return to the object program it was executing at the time the "interrupt" occurred.

 Burroughs
The "Burroughs large systems" machines starting with the B5000 in 1961 were stack machines designed to be programmed in an extended Algol 60.
Their operating systems, called MCP (Master Control Program - the name later borrowed by the screenwriters for Tron), were programmed in extended Algol almost a decade before Unix, and the command interface developed into a compiled structured language with procedures called WFL (Work Flow Language).
Burroughs produced a series of minicomputers starting with the B1700 that were designed to be microprogrammed, with each process potentially getting its own virtual machine designed to be the best match to the programming language chosen for the application being run.

 Master Combat Control Program - Introduction
It is a tool for the pen-and-paper role playing game Shadowrun, which aids the game master in handling several aspects of the game which have to be managed during a combat sequence.
So the "Master Combat Control Program" (MCCP for short) was created, to provide a tool very similar to the "Shadowrun-Assistent" (you could call it a clone).
The game master simply states which characters take part in the combat situation and the program uses the stats entered with the character editor (see above) to calculate the final initiative value for each character.
