Synopsis
This book examines the development of a remote entry system for the CDC 6600 computer system. It documents the engineering work involved in establishing a front end minicomputer that would manage the complex transmission tasks related to the 6600's operation. The book covers the technical challenges of interfacing the two computers and includes the software environment that was created to handle the various I/O requirements. The author describes the implementation of the new system, including the data paths and protocols, as well as the impact on the existing operating system. The result was a system that offered greater flexibility, allowing for support of a wide range of remote terminals with varying transmission speeds and data formats. The insights provided in this book offer valuable guidance for those interested in the history of computing and the ongoing development of remote data entry systems.
