* 2021-08-14, 19:00: **The Whirlwind I**\\ //Angelo Papenhoff (Humboldt University of Berlin)//\\ The Whirlwind was a computer of the first generation built at the servomechanisms lab at MIT. It was the first computer designed to be a highly reliable part of a system, and to be controlled in real time, rather than be a programmable calculator for scientific research. Its interactive nature directly started a tradition of computer engineering at MIT which includes the TX-0, TX-2 and DEC's PDP line of minicomputers. Its role in a simulated air defense system led to the development of the AN/FSQ-7 computer, the center piece of the SAGE system. In my talk I will give the historical context in which Whirlwind was designed and built, explain its architecture and block diagrams, go into how it was built and how it evolved over its lifetime, and of course show some simple demos in my emulator. Those who want to stick around for a bit longer are encouraged to join me in a little hands-on hacking session where we look at some original code, but also write our own to get a feeling for what programming the Whirlwind is like.\\ {{2021-08-14_project_whirlwind.pdf|Slides}}, | * 2021-08-14, 19:00: **The Whirlwind I**\\ //Angelo Papenhoff (Humboldt University of Berlin)//\\ The Whirlwind was a computer of the first generation built at the servomechanisms lab at MIT.
