Projeto e Arquitetura do System/360

O documento abaixo, me foi passado por Wilhelm G. Spruth, através de troca de e-mail que tivemos entre os meses de Julho/Agosto de 2011.
Wilhem, hoje com 83 anos, e' PHD, atua no Instituto de Computação da Alemanha e foi um dos gerentes de projeto do S/360.

O documento original da arquitetura do S/360 esta no link  
http://www.informatik.uni-leipzig.de/cs/Literature/History/Amdahl.pdf  . 

Esse é o DNA do IBM Mainframe.  


Veja a íntegra do primeiro e-mail que trocamos e demais informações sobre o projeto e a participação dele.
Ao final, Wilhelm adiciona outros livros e documentos que produziu mais recentemente, disponíveis em seu site.

Hallo,

I am 81 years, and am serving as an adjunct professor at both Tuebingen 
and Leipzig universities, giving classroom lectures, supervising 
bachelor, master, and PH.D. thesis work, and doing some original 
research. I joined IBM in 1949 in Poughkeepsie, starting work on the 
Sabre Airline Reservation system.

On April 7, 1963, IBM announced S/360, a total of 52 products. I was 
Project manager for one of those, the IBM 7772 Audio Response Unit. Thus 
I have known Amdahl, Blaauw, Brooks and Evans personally.

The original paper Amdahl, G.A. Blaauw, F.P. Brooks ; " Architecture of 
the IBM System/360". IBM Journal of Research and Development, Vol. 8, 
no.2 (April 1964), p. 87-101, can be downloaded from

The following book availailable from Amazon covers the mainframe switch 
from bipolar to CMOS technology:

Wilhelm G. Spruth: The Design of a Microprocessor. Publisher: Springer; 
1 edition (November 14, 1989), ISBN-10: 3540513957, ISBN-13: 978-3540513957

You may want to read a report I published recently:

I recently gave a talk: The future of the mainframe. You can download it 
from

Finally, you can access my two home pages at Leipzig and Tuebingen 
University at

They contain lots of  material.  Sorry, most of the material is in German
