Subject: [TUHS] MERT available anywhere?
Date: Sun, 18 May 2014 08:05:38 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140518120538.2117118C0BA@mercury.lcs.mit.edu> (raw)

Does anyone know if the source for an early PDP-11 version of MERT is
available anywhere?

(For those who aren't familiar with MERT, it was a micro-kernel [as we would
name it now] which provided message-passing and [potentially shared] memory
segments, intended for real-time applications; it supported several levels of
protection, using the 'Supervisor' mode available in the 11/45 and 11/70. One
set of supervisor processes provided a Unix environment; the combination was
called UNIX/RT - hence my asking about it here.)

Thanks!

	Noel
