Nonsense.  While compilation is a compute-intensive task, BLISS compiles do not
necessarily require any more resources than MACRO compiles.  I regularly
compiled BLISS modules during daytime timesharing without any significant impact
on other users.  One can just as well bog down a machine doing a monitor build.

I worked on PDP-10 development systems.  BLISS bogged so much that
Autopatch got its own DECsystem-20 machine so that everyone
else could get work done.

That had nothing to do with BLISS and everything to do with user loads.  I did
plenty of daytime BLISS compiles on the TOPS-20 machines and never brought them
to their knees.

TOPS-20 was written in Macro[-20], thank the goddess.  The other choice would
have been BLISS, and much of the device code would still have been Macro.
PL/1 was available, but not widely used in the user community, and certainly not
inside DEC.

There was a compiler, I'm unclear if it was ever released - I haven't been
able to find it.  Didn't Xenakis write it?

He worked on it all the time I was working in the Mill.  He never completed
it.  I'm sure some University did one but we never suppported one nor
offered it as product.  I don't know what happened in the later PDP-11
and VAX developments.

note when the CP67/CMS group split off from the science center, they
moved to the 3rd flr taking over the IBM Boston Programming Center
(which was doing CPS, basic and conversational PLI). Later as the group
expanded with the transition from CP67/CMS to VM370/CMS, they outgrew
the 3rd flr and moved out to Burlington Mall into the vacant (former)
SBC bldg.
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subtopic.html#545tech

During much of this period, mainstream IBM was also doing "Future
System" (was totally different 360/370 and was going to completely
replace it) ... and was trying to shutdown 370 efforts (credited with
giving 370 clone processor makers a market foothold).
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/submain.html#futuresys

when "future system" imploded, there was mad rush to get stuff back into
370 product pipeline. As part of that the head of POK managed to
convince corporate hdqtrs to kill the vm370/cms product, shutdown the
burlington mall group and move all the people to POK ... or otherwise he
wouldn't be able to meet the MVS/XA ship schedule ... some 7-8yrs later.
Note that Endicott managed to salvage the vm370/cms product mission (and
ship thousands of vm/4300 systems) but they had to reconstitute a
vm370/cms group from scratch.

The shutdown of burlington mall group was stealth operation, the people
weren't going to be told until the very last minute ... to minimize the
number that would be able to escape the move. However, the information
leaked early ... and there was a witch hunt to identify the source of
the leak ... fortunately for me, nobody gave up the source. Later there
was a joke that the head of POK was one of the largest contributors
to DEC VMS (because so many people escaped the POK move and went
to work for DEC).

Old post with a couple names ... some that might be recognized
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2013c.html#8

the list of the names in above was when they were still on the 3rd
flr. I think they may have grown to nearly a couple hundred out in
burlington.

There was in the sense that different symbols are used, otherwise the various
JSYS calls wouldn't be recognized.  But there was no "official" MACRO-20,
which is why I used brackets.  And no one called it MACRO-10, it was just MACRO.

Some languages were offered by third-party vendors or available in the DECUS
library.  DEC obviously wouldn't have relied on such for serious development.

I wrote MACRO-10 on purpose because you wrote MACR[O-20] which implied
there were two different programs.

That functionality didn't come from MACRO-10.  It was invoked with the
SEARCH and REQUEST "verbs" of MACRO-10.

Your MACRO-10 program would begin with

    SEARCH UUOSYM
    REQUEST MACTEN

for TOPS-10 assemblies and

    SEARCH MONSYM
    REQUEST MACSYM

for TOPS-20 assemblies.

If anyone developed PL/I, they wouldn't submit it to DECUS; they would
sell it.

Many people wrote software packages, including languages, and put them
in the DECUS library.  Someone could have done so for PL/1, if they wanted to.

Honeywell CP-6 OS was written in a pl/1 subset called PL6.  Similar
to what came later came out of Prime and others.  Stripped down pl/1
with no IO.

The original PL6 (cross) compiler was written in Fortran on a Sigma
running CP-V.  It spit out L66 instructions.  Eventually the compiler
was re-written in PL6.

Hmm. I wonder if that had something to do with the fact that the Honeywell 632 
had a strong resemblance to a Sigma in some ways.

No.  Honeywell bought Xerox data systems.  XDS bought SDS a few
years before. CP-6 was an attempt to migrate the current CPV 
customer base to Honeywell hardware.  The SDS/XDS hardware had 
run it's course.  There were interim updates to the
Sigma hardware to try and keep the customer base on board.
I worked on several of the projects.  Expanded memory for the 
Sigma 9 and MOS memory using a L66 memory cabinet.  Increased disk
size using a Sigma<->MPC contoller adapter.  Also Honeywell 6250
bpi tape drives.  Interesting projects.  My first exposure to
downloading firmware into a device controller during boot up.

There is a pretty good write up on the multics mailing list about
the battle within Honeywell on which OS would live, Multics, GECOS or
CP6.  Honeywell could not afford to fund all 3 dev efforts.  I dont
have a link handy but Google will probably find it with "multics
gecos" or something like that.

So, surprise, surprise, the OS originally developed by Honeywell was deemed
the best.  That reminds me of the story of a railroad merger, I think the
New York Central and the Pennsylvania.  The railroad being acquired had by
far the best computer system. Guess which system they kept?

As I understand it, it was not a question of which system was "better",
nor was it an issue of keeping one system over an another.

The problem with the Penn Central's computerization, along with
the rest of the railroad's problems, was a lack of compatibility
between two different systems, compounded by a failure to do any
real planning in advance.  (Ref Wreck of the Penn Central,
plus other works).

Also, not helping was the PRR/NYC rivalry, which remained in
effect for decades following the merger; each side believing
it was better and blaming the other side for the problems.

When they created Conrail, they worked hard not to repeat the
Penn Central's mistakes.

I think joining two companies often results in animosities, even from people 
who joined *after* the composite company is in place.  Perhaps a herd 
mentality or tribal identity thing.   ISTM that a good leader can minimize 
this problem, but it would take a very special person.  But simply paying 
someone a lot of money does not make him a very special person.

Today, many employers do not care what their employees think.
Any employee with a problem will be shown the door.

In the past, employers did.  One good example of a leader of a
merged company was Walter P. Marshall, the new president of Western
Union.  He came from Postal Telegraph and unified the companies.

AMEX spun off a lot of its dataprocessing in 1992 as First Data
in what was the largest IPO at the time.

Later FDC and First Financial were somewhat in competition somewhat
to buy WU, FDC dropped out in part because WU wasn't in really
good financial shape.

Before the end of century, FDC and First Financial merged ... and
FDC had to spin off MoneyGram (part of what it got when FDC
was spun off from AMEX) ... because the merged company also
owned WU (which still wasn't doing good).

By the middle of last decade, the explosion in illegal workers (after
the start of the century) sending paychecks home spiked WU revenue until
it represented half of FDC's bottom line. In that time-frame the
President of Mexico invited FDC executives to Mexico, promising to put
them in jail. Somewhat after that, FDC spun off WU in an IPO.

Along the way there was a proposal for WalMart to get into financial
transactions (i.e. the original rhetoric on the floor of congress as to
the primary purpose of GLBA ... later better known for repeal of
Glass-Steagall ... was if you already had a banking charter you got to
keep it, but if you didn't you couldn't get one ... specifically calling
out WalMart and Microsoft (i.e. keep new technology competition out of
the banking industry). There was a structure to do something like
.10-.15 cents per transactions ... but the WU vice-president got it
nixed because he was pushing a proposal to WalMar where WU would do such
transactions for >>$1 (instead of $.10). It turns out that it wasn't
just WU ... there were other financial institutions also lobbying
WalMart with schemes for >>$1plus/transaction.

Note WalMart sued the card associations around the turn of the century
because they were forcing point-of-sale debit to go thru as "signature
debit" which had a significantly higher interchange fee ... than if it
went through as "PIN-debit" ... and WalMart won ... something like
$billion dollar+ settlement. Just recently I saw WalMart has filed a
similar legal action against the card associations over EMV is being
done as signature transaction (where everywhere else in the world, EMV
is "chip&pin").

As I've periodically posted in past there was a large EMV/chip&pin pilot
in the US around the turn of the century ... but it was in the "Yes
Card" period (the chip vulnerabilities turned out to make the fraud
worse than magnetic strip fraud, if you could believe). reference
to some of the vulnerability at the bottom of this 2002cartes
trip report ... gone 404, but lives on at the wayback machine:
http://web.archive.org/web/20030417083810/http://www.smartcard.co.uk/resources/articles/cartes2002.html
past posts
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subintegrity.html#yescard

there was presentation of "Yes Card" in 2003 at the "ATM Integrity Task
Force" meeting by Federal LEO ... which prompted somebody in the
audience to exclaim that "they managed to spend billions to prove that
chips are less secure than magstripe". All evidence of the large US
pilot then appear to disappear and some reference that it might be a
long time before it was tried again in the US (let the vulnerabilities
and bugs be worked out in other jurisdictions).
