Abstract

One of the Army-Navy Committees' primary motivations for selecting a proven computer architecture for the basis of a family of software compatible military computers is the potential utility of the existing software base. Therefore, the evaluation of the software bases of the candidate architectures constituted one very important factor in the final selection. This paper describes that software base evaluation process and results thereof.
