I had a 5700 and a 6800 at one time the 5700 had actual core memory, i.e. ferrite cores, but the 6800 was semiconductor. Didn't look at your changes but those are the facts. The 5000 series generally preceeded VLSI. Lycurgus 07:17, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi, I saw your changes to Cray CS6400 etc. claiming it was derived from the Xerox Dragon. While the XDBus was, of course, derived from the Dragon's inter-processor bus, there is more to a computer architecture than the inter-processor bus. Hence, I think it is a bit of an exageration to say that the SPARCcenter 2000 was essentially the same as a Dragon (which was, after all, based on a proprietary processor architecture and not SPARC-based) and that the CS6400 was therefore primarily a derivative of the Dragon also.

Why's Linksys marking it as such then if it isnt?
The fact that you can still buy them new doesnt mean its not discontinued

Hi Mark. Reading the VCPI (Virtual Control Program Interface) article I stumbled upon your 2008 edit, where you wrote that an extended version of the specification named XVCPI was used by Interactive Unix and in Digital Research OSes (presumably in Concurrent or Multiuser DOS?). While I am quite familiar with the internals of the DRI operating system family, I must admit that I have not heard this particular abbreviation before. Was this something official? Can you perhaps provide some further explanation what kind of extensions were added. Do you have or know some references? Thanks. -- Matthiaspaul ( talk) 20:27, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

What I can't say is whether I actually had anything that implemented XVCPI "server" capabilities, or whether I wrote that against the paper spec lest somebody expected me to sort out problems on a machine that had it. Similarly, I can't say whether the idea was that DR implemented an XVCPI server for application programs to use, or whether they anticipated that CDOS would be running on a larger-scale (unix) system and would need to implement XVCPI client functionality to get memory etc. My understanding is that at least some of DR's code is now available for study (I'm not saying open source since I've not seen the licenses), but I doubt that that would include R&D projects or things they'd written in collaboration with another company.

Hello! I have just an immediate concern about Cumberbatch's page. Its leading paragraphs were changed and it indicated that "his parents were actors". I am just alarmed by this sentence as his parents are not dead nor are they retired from acting. There are a lot of sources to support this. I also think that the first paragraph is poorly written and the previous version is better as it lists everything from theatre to radio that made him notable and worthy of a Wikipedia page. I do think that's the purpose of the lead paragraph so that's why I am sending you this request. Thank you very much and I hope you can make changes immediately to lessen misinformation.

I see you removed the ? on Val Schorre. I have looked for something showing Schorre had anything to do with TREE-META. Do you know of any TREE-META doc giving him credit. It is obviously based on Schorre's work. Personally I consider it a Schorre meta compiler. Steamerandy ( talk) 09:56, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
I have found two papers on TREE-META. TREE-META was developed at Stanford Research Institute Menlo Park Calif. The first paper from 1967 and the other 1968. D. Val Schorre was working with Erwin Book at SDC in 1967. Val Schorre was also at SDC in 1970. It doesn't appear that Schorre was directly involved in developing TREE-META. Schorre is given credit as TREE-META is based on META II. CWIC is simular to TREE-META in the way it constructs trees. However the code production language uses LISP 2 procedural actions. I would call both unparse rules. How the unparse rules of CWIC are different. They are not named by nodes. A generator function is more like an overloaded function. A generators uniquely named set of unparse_rule => actions. CWIC has variables and when used in an unparse rule are assigned the object. i.e. ADD[x,y] matches an ADD tree having two branches. The left branch to x and the right to y. x an y are local variables to the action. Another feature is that a variable used in an argument place of a generator call in a an unparse rule is instead a return value of the function. i.e.
a_gen[ADD[a_gen[x],a_gen[y]]]=>... [SUB[a_gen[x],a_gen[y]]]=>...
a_gen is a generator function. It returns success or failure statue as well as an object. Probably a register in the case anove.
I see similarities between TREE-META and Cwic. there may have been some collaboration. CWIC is far more advanced in capability. The trees in CWIC are lists whose first element is a node. The generator action can operate directly on lists. Function arguments for example. The +[ and ]+ are used to construct a list.
arg_list = +[expr $(',' expr)]+;
The above construct a list of a number of expr.
There is a node stack in CWIC. Its unclear if TREE-META has an additional node stack.
So :ADD pushes an ADD node onto the node stack. !<number> is used in syntax rules to make a tree having the <number> branches.
expr = term $(('+':ADD/'-':SUB) term!2);
I see in most TREE-META examples the above as:
expr = term $('+' term:ADD[2]/'-' term:SUB[2]);
Very simular to META II that had only a call stack.
I followed a TREE-META link to a 1974 TREE-META by a different group that is quite a bit different then the 67 and 68 documents I have it in pdf form.
Anyway the simularities being so very close suggests the two groups may collaborated.
When I wrote SLIC Erwin Book was vary helpful. He gave the manuals for CWIC. When I called him a couple of times I got very good answers. They were quite open about implementation details. Steamerandy ( talk) 01:05, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
I removed Shorre from the author list. Will look at how to include him. There are obvious uses of META II elements in TREE-META. The token recognizer functions .NUMBER, .ID, and .STRING are the same in both. Steamerandy ( talk) 22:36, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to List of TCP and UDP port numbers, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. 2001:2003:54FA:2F79:0:0:0:1 ( talk) 17:04, 26 August 2017 (UTC)

I worked with Lynn while at HP from 1979 thru 1987 and learned of his work with Treemeta to implement a version of ALGOL. Have you tried contacting him to get a copy of his thesis?
We had discussions from time to time of his usage of Treemeta which he maintained first on HP3000 in SPL, and then in 1988 was ported to hpux in C.
A working copy of the C port of his Treemeta exists which continues to be used for various purposes on Linux in C. Seravant ( talk) 16:23, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

Dear MarkML In a recent edit to the bit-serial architecture article you seemed to say that
which is a good point -- the previous version of the article made some overly-broad claims. I find it tricky to put in just the right amount of qualifiers. (One of my pet peeves is people who put in more qualifiers than are really needed, making something that is actually common seem like an unusual niche rarity).
I also agree that Babbage's computers weren't serial, and I hope the "built before 1951" qualification appropriately excludes them -- if I'm reading the Wikipedia Analytical Engine article correctly, the first of Babbage's computers to be completed was built in 1991.
Today I added a citation to Wikipedia's Atanasoff–Berry computer article that, if I'm reading it correctly, seems to say the ALU "operated on only one bit of each number at a time", so apparently it does use a bit-serial architecture (?).
I recently changed the bit-serial architecture article to say that
I would be very surprised and delighted to find a good reference to a bit-parallel architecture computer before that.
