Abstract:

Comparing alternative computer architectures is a topic of concern to both users and designers of computer systems. This paper presents the results of a second study undertaken to try and quantitatively evaluate alternative computer architectures. The first study compared the INTERDATA 832, PDP11, and IBM 370 architectures. Subsequent interest in additional architectures has allowed us to initiate a second study covering the PDP-11, ANUYK-20, ANUYK-19, ANGYK-12 and ANUYK-7. This second study has allowed us to address a number of limitations and shortcomings of the first study.
