  • The Inmos Legacy - transputer links and SpaceWire
    After reading https://forums.theregister.com/forum/all/2022/05/06/pi_pico_transputer_code/, I was looking for information related to transputers and found this page.

    The point-to-point technology to link transputers was formalised in the IEEE 1355 standard. This was further developed under the ESA into SpaceWire, which is now designed into a number of space missions under development in Europe, the USA and Japan. A key player in developing SpaceWire was Paul Walker from the transputer team whose company, 4Links, is now selling SpaceWire test equipment.

  • MakerLisp
    The MakerLisp Machine is a portable, modular computer system, designed to recapture the feel of classic computing, with modern hardware. The CPU is a Zilog eZ80 running at 50 MHz, which supports up to 16 MB of zero wait state RAM. The system software is 'MakerLisp', a 'Lisp on Bare Metal' system that allows direct access to system hardware, while providing the concise expressive power of a functionally complete Lisp environment. The machine is also an ideal platform for an extended CP/M. A full system configuration is pictured here, with CPU, expansion board, USB keyboard, and VGA display, in the laser-cut wood 'MakerStation' enclosure.

    Besides "VM and the VM Community: Past, Present, and Future", which I have started to read, it also has other documents, including "What Mother Never Told You About VM Service, 1983", which was mentioned in
    https://minnie.tuhs.org/pipermail/tuhs/2022-December/026996.html
    "What Mother Never Told You" is still the best document about system maintenance ever written.

  • athornton | The UNIX-HATERS Handbook, a review
    Just what it says. The author had read the handbook soon after it came out and has revisited it 25 years later. He also offers interesting comments about most of the competing operating systems. See also

    Wiki of devine, a member of 100 rabbits https://wiki.xxiivv.com/site/hundred_rabbits.html
    Lots of interesting ideas about programming, simplicity etc.
    For example, Catclock was originally an X10 program by Tony Della Fera, Dave Mankins, Ed Moy, Deanna Hohn and Philip Schneider, crafted for entertainment, in the late 1980's. It was also ported to the Plan 9 operating system by Tom Duff. https://wiki.xxiivv.com/site/plan9.html

  • TTL-based computer
    Magic-1 is a completely homebuilt minicomputer.  It doesn't use an off-the-shelf microprocessor, but instead has a custom CPU made out of 74 Series TTL chips.  Altogether there are more than 200 chips in Magic-1 connected together with thousands of individually wrapped wires.  And, it works.  Not only the hardware, but a full software stack. There's a ANSI C cross-compiler for Magic-1 (retargeted LCC), a fully multi-user, multi-tasking port of the Minix 2 operating system. a TCP/IP stack and hundreds of programs.
