AIX / 370 was released in 1990 with functional equivalence to System V Release 2 and 4. 3BSD as well as IBM enhancements.
With the introduction of the ESA / 390 architecture, AIX / 370 was replaced by AIX / ESA in 1991, which was based on OSF / 1, and also ran on the System / 390 platform.

System and 390
Two other satellites made observations at the time of the impact: the Ulysses spacecraft, primarily designed for solar observations, was pointed towards Jupiter from its location 2. 6 AU away, and the distant Voyager 2 probe, some 44 AU from Jupiter and on its way out of the Solar System following its encounter with Neptune in 1989, was programmed to look for radio emission in the 1 390 kHz range.
Mature versions of the Commodore, SWTPC, Atari and Apple home computer systems all featured a disk operating system ( actually called ' DOS ' in the case of the Commodore 64 ( CBM DOS ), Atari 800 ( Atari DOS ), and Apple II machines ( Apple DOS )), as did ( at the other end of the hardware spectrum, and much earlier ) IBM's System / 360, 370 and ( later ) 390 series of mainframes ( e. g., DOS / 360: Disk Operating System / 360 and DOS / VSE: Disk Operating System / Virtual Storage Extended ).

System and Compatible
Systems like the Compatible Time-Sharing System introduced the concept of a file system, which managed several virtual " files " on one storage device, giving the term its present-day meaning.
Many of the text elements are found in the 1988 ISO technical report TR 9537 Techniques for using SGML, which in turn covers the features of early text formatting languages such as that used by the RUNOFF command developed in the early 1960s for the CTSS ( Compatible Time-Sharing System ) operating system: these formatting commands were derived from the commands used by typesetters to manually format documents.
MIT also had developed their own influential system, the Incompatible Timesharing System ( named in parody of the Compatible Time-Sharing System, developed at MIT for a modified IBM 7094 ).
# Original MAD, the compiler developed in 1959 at the University of Michigan for the IBM 704 and later the IBM 709 and IBM 7090 mainframe computers running the University of Michigan Executive System ( UMES ) and the Compatible Time-Sharing System ( CTSS ) operating systems.
Programs written in MAD included MAIL, RUNOFF, one of the first text processing systems, and several other utilities all under Compatible Time-Sharing System ( CTSS ).
Though the term dates from the 1990s, instant messaging predates the Internet, first appearing on multi-user operating systems like Compatible Time-Sharing System ( CTSS ) and Multiplexed Information and Computing Service ( Multics ) in the mid-1960s.
* The Compatible Time-Sharing System ( CTSS ), one of the first time-sharing operating systems, was developed at MIT's Project MAC using a 7094 with an extra bank of memory, among other modifications.
** CTSS ( MIT's Compatible Time-Sharing System for the IBM 7094 )
The Compatible Time-Sharing System, or the CTSS, was one of the first time-sharing operating systems ; it was developed at MIT's Computation Center.

ITS, the Incompatible Timesharing System ( named in comparison with the Compatible Time-Sharing System also in use at MIT ), was an early, revolutionary, and influential time-sharing operating system from MIT ; it was developed principally by the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at MIT, with some help from Project MAC.
The name was chosen by Tom Knight as a joke on the name of the earliest MIT time-sharing operating system, the Compatible Time-Sharing System, which dated from the early 1960s.
The first timesharing system he was associated with was known as the MIT Compatible Time-Sharing System, an early version of which was demonstrated in 1961.
