%A W. Jack Worlton %T Computing at LASL in the 1940's and 1950's: Hardware %R UC-32, LA-68 plus 143-H %I Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory %C Los Alamos N.M. 87545 %D May 1978 %X A collection of four papers introduced by Bill Buzbee for "Pioneer Day" at the '77 NCC (Dallas). Estimation should precede computation. "Carson's Caution" by Jack Worlton for J. Carson Mark, %X This article published about the time of the Cray-1 1953-1977, details some of the first comparisons of supercomputers. Using the CDC 6600 as a relative measure of 1, a CDC 7600 was 5x, an IBM 7094 was 0.1, an IBM 7090 was 0.07, an IBM 7030 was 0.3, IBM 704 and MANIAC II were 0.01, and IBM 701 and MANIAC I were 0.006 of a 6600. A Cyber 73 was 0.75. A Cray-1 was 20x a CDC 6600. Chart also has one of the earliest uses of "bandwidth" measurements. Parallelism in architectures (1946-1976) are noted. %X Historic accounting, parallel computing using 25 people and privates Feynman: LASL punch card accounting machines in '44: 3 IBM 601 multiplers (workhorse) 1 IBM 405 alphabetic accounting machines 1 IBM 031 alphabetic duplicating punch 1 IBM 513 reproducing punch 1 IBM 075 sorter 1 IBM 077 collator %X Historic accounting: Non-LASL comps used for LASL work: ENIAC: Metropolis-Frankel for 1st "significant" thermonuclear, ENIAC: Metropolis-Frankel for liquid drop fission, Also Foster-Evans, Calkin-Mayer, & Stein. %X "Supercomputer" is used starting with the MANIAC, and the STRETCH (7030) is briefly regarded as one (0.3 (30% ) of a CDC 6600). Mentions why the CDC STAR-100 was rejected (limited gains).

Anne & Lynn Wheeler While in a sense the above is correct, I think it'd be more accurate to say Watsons' (both) compensation was based on total sales of the company. If the company...
