But the 801 inspired several research projects, including new ones at IBM that would eventually lead to the IBM POWER system.

The University of British Columbia ( UBC ) took the lead in converting MTS to run on the IBM S / 370 series ( an IBM S / 370-168 ) in 1974.

The project lead was initially blackballed for his role in the " failure ", but as the success of the 360 became obvious he was given an official apology and make an IBM Fellow.

While some in the industry speculated this would lead to IBM using 6x86 CPUs extensively in its product line and improve Cyrix's reputation, IBM continued to mostly use Intel CPUs, and to a lesser extent, AMD CPUs, in the majority of its products and only used the Cyrix designs in a few budget models, mostly sold outside of the United States.

Don Estridge had been on the lead manager on the IBM Series / 1 minicomputer.

The original design was a collaboration between Tom Hardy, corporate head of the IBM Design Program, Italian-based designer Richard Sapper ( noted for the design of classic products such as the Tizio lamp for Artemide, office chair for Knoll, kitchenwares for Alessi and ballpoint for Lamy ) and Kazuhiko Yamazaki, lead notebook designer at IBM's Yamato Design Center in Japan.

The first mark sense scanner was the IBM 805 Test Scoring Machine ; this read marks by sensing the electrical conductivity of graphite pencil lead using pairs of wire brushes that scanned the page.

Many of the original i432 team members joined this project, though a new lead architect was brought in from IBM, Glenford Myers.

On September 1, 2009, Sunil Chopra, former Senior Associate Dean: Curriculum and Teaching and IBM Distinguished Professor of Operations Management, assumed as interim dean while the Dean Search Committee worked to find the best candidate to lead the school.

IBM has announced a RoHS solution for high lead solder joints once thought to remain a permanent exemption.

Steve Smith worked for IBM in the Large Scale Integration ( semiconductor ) Technology Group in San Jose as a technical group lead from 1982 until 1985.

While IBM was one of the key companies that fostered the growth of the PC industry and initially dominated it, by 1990 it had lost its lead.

Before being the leader of the team to develop the IBM PC he had been the lead manager for the development of the IBM Series / 1 mini-computer.

The Victor 9000 met with significant success in Europe, as IBM delayed the European launch of its PC for 18 months giving time for the Sirius to build up a commanding lead for a short time.

Cornell University lead by physicist Kenneth G. Wilson made a supercomputer proposal to NSF with IBM to produce a processor array of FPS boxes attached to an IBM mainframe with the name lCAP.

* the 3800 laser printer, and some machines that would lead to the IBM 3279 terminal and GDDM

In the lead article about System / 360 in the IBM Journal of Research and Development, April 1964, only Evans was acknowledged by name, in these words: “ The scope of the compatibility objective and of the whole System / 360 undertaking was largely due to B. O. Evans, Data Systems Division Vice President – Development .”

Since 1996, alphaWorks has succeeded in helping IBM connect with innovative developers to lead the development of promising new standards ( for example, Enterprise Media Beans ), products and open source technology.

Jack Bresenham at IBM is most famous for the invention of 2D drawing primitives, including line and circle drawing, using only fast integer operations such as addition and branch on carry bit.

The most famous was the Gibson Mix, produced by Jack Clark Gibson of IBM for scientific applications.

The algorithm was developed by Jack E. Bresenham in 1962 at IBM.

The case, designed by John " Jack " Frassanito, was deliberately designed to fit in the same space as an IBM Selectric typewriter, and used a video screen shaped to be the same aspect ratio as an IBM punched card.

The Maxtor founders, James McCoy, Jack Swartz, and Raymond Niedzwiecki --- graduates of the San Jose State University School of Engineering and former employees of IBM --- began the search for funding in 1981.

) According to Charles C. Kenney, " Jack Connors remembers being in Wang's office one day when the Doctor pulled out a chart on which he had plotted Wang's growth and projected that Wang Laboratories would overtake IBM sometime in the middle of the 1990s.

In later discussions between IBM and Bill Gates, Gates mentioned the existence of 86-DOS and IBM representative Jack Sams told him to get a license for it.

One was started by Jack Dennis for the PDP-1, and one was started by Professor Fernando J. Corbató for the IBM 7090.

* Jack Kuehler, Former President and Vice Chairman, IBM

Tseng Laboratories, Inc. ( also known as Tseng Labs or TLI ) was a maker of graphics chips and controllers for IBM PC compatibles, based in Newtown, Pennsylvania, and founded by Jack H-N Tseng.

The technique caught the attention of user interface specialists with Jack Carroll's lab work at IBM ( 1983 ), where he found that hiding advanced functionality early on led to an increased success of its use later on.

IBM president Jack Kuehler was shifted to the post of vice chairman, while finance director Frank Metz were also ousted.

To further develop the system, in January 1958 IBM hired Jack Kuehler to head up a team exploring Kalvar-based films.

Before the IBM representatives would explain the purpose of their visit, they insisted that Dorothy sign a non-disclosure agreement.

It was arguably responsible for the split between Microsoft and IBM, since IBM insisted that OS / 2, originally a joint venture between IBM and Microsoft, would run on a 286 ( and in text mode ).

* OS / 2 1. x targeted the 80286 processor: IBM insisted on supporting the Intel 80286 processor, with its 16-bit segmented memory mode, due to commitments made to customers who had purchased many 80286-based PS / 2's because of IBM's promises surrounding OS / 2.

However, the changes IBM had insisted on were a liability where the III Plus user base was concerned.

Since the cassette port interface of the original IBM PC was never implemented on compatibles, cassette operations are not supported.

The 5150's successor, the model 5160 IBM XT, never shipped with SSDD drives ; it generally had one double-sided 360 kB drive ( next to its internal hard disk ).

According to Tom Jr .: This anecdote never made it into IBM lore, which is too bad, because it would have helped explain Father to the tens of thousands of people who had to follow his rules.

But during World War II, IBM subsidiaries in occupied Europe never stopped delivery of punch cards to Dehomag, and documents uncovered show that senior executives at IBM world headquarters in New York took great pains to maintain legal authority over Dehomag's operations and assets through the personal intervention of IBM managers in neutral Switzerland, directed via personal communications and private letters.

UCSD p-System ( Version IV, supplied by SofTech ) was one of three operating systems ( along with PC-DOS and CP / M-86 ) that IBM offered for its original IBM PC ; but the p-System never sold very well for the IBM PC, mainly because of a lack of applications and because it was more expensive than the other choices.

VWLC and EWLC are also available for most IBM software products running on z / OS, and their peaks are separately calculated but can never exceed the z / OS peak.

A multiplayer networked IBM PC version of the game was prototyped, but never released.

Also, because of hardware incompatibility with the IBM PC design, the Intel 80186 processor released only a year after the IBM PC was never popular in general-purpose personal computers.

IBM also developed, but never officially released, TSS / 360, a time-sharing system for the S / 360 Model 67.

It was never widely used and essentially disappeared soon after the division was shut down in 1985, possibly because IBM and other companies settled on SQL as the standard.

This version of DOS was never released in retail but was used in several IBM products such as the IBM ServerGuide Scripting Toolkit.

DWScript is a version of SCRIPT for MS-DOS, called after its author, D. D. Williams, but was never released to the public and only used internally by IBM.

It has been stated that the IBM Token Ring was an option-this was never available.

Although revenue from the initial OS / 2 release was never paid by the bankrupt publisher, popular support encouraged Stardock to release Shipyards, an add-on pack that allowed users to design their own starships, and this provided enough revenue to support further development, with a simplified version being sold to IBM in 1995 as Star Emperor.

Apple never ported A / UX to PowerPC Macintoshes ( though A / UX 4. 0 was rumored to have been an OSF / 1 adaptation ), and the company all but abandoned it by 1996, preferring to use a slightly modified version of IBM ’ s AIX system on their mid-90s Apple Network Servers.

* ACS-1 and ACS-360, supercomputers designed but never completed in the 1960s by the IBM Advanced Computing Systems

Other than the Tandy 1000 and Amstrad IBM PC compatible lines a few years later, the dual built-in joystick ports introduced by the PCjr never became standard on IBM PC compatibles, and have not been seen since.
