time sharing

Today, the Portobello Timebank marks its 10th Anniversary with a fund-raising event this afternoon in the Baptist Church Hall. They do hold regular such sessions there – but this one is just a little special – as David Calder found out from some of the members:

C y UNIX son la base de la informática moderna. Muchos de los lenguajes de los que hemos hablado esta temporada están relacionados o al menos tuvieron alguna influencia de C. Lo increíble es que C y UNIX surgieron gracias a cuatro desarrolladores de Bell Labs que se aferraron a sus sueños y los crearon como un proyecto propio.   Bell Labs fue un centro de innovación de mediados del siglo XX. Jon Gertner lo describe como una "fábrica de ideas". Uno de sus proyectos más importantes en la década de 1960 fue ayudar a desarrollar un sistema operativo de tiempo compartido llamado Multics. La Dra. Joy Lisi Rankin explica que en ese momento hubo una exageración importante en torno al tiempo compartido: se le describió como algo que lograría que se accediera a la computación como si fuera un servicio público. Hubo equipos grandes que dedicaron muchos años a desarrollar Multics, pero el resultado no fue el esperado. Bell Labs se alejó oficialmente del tiempo compartido en 1969. Pero, como cuenta Andrew Tanenbaum, un pequeño equipo de héroes siguió adelante, y C y UNIX fueron el fruto de sus esfuerzos. En ese momento ni siquiera se imaginaban que su trabajo daría forma al curso de la tecnología.

C and UNIX are at the root of modern computing. Many of the languages we’ve covered this season are related to or at least influenced by C. But C and UNIX only happened because a few developers at Bell Labs created both as a skunkworks project. Bell Labs was a mid-twentieth century center for innovation. Jon Gertner describes it as an “idea factory.” One of their biggest projects in the 1960s was helping build a time-sharing operating system called Multics. Dr. Joy Lisi Rankin explains the hype around time-sharing at the time—it was described as potentially making computing accessible as a public utility. Large teams devoted years of effort to build Multics—and it wasn’t what they had hoped for. Bell Labs officially moved away from time-sharing in 1969. But as Andrew Tanenbaum recounts, a small team of heroes pushed on anyways. C and UNIX were the result. Little did they know how much their work would shape the course of technology.
