1963 Timesharing: A Solution to Computer Bottlenecks
[Recorded: May 9, 1963]
This vintage film features MIT Science Reporter John Fitch at the MIT Computation Center in an extended interview with MIT professor of computer science Fernando J. Corbato. The film was co-produced by WGBH (Boston) and MIT.
The prime focus of the film is timesharing, one of the most important developments in computing, and one which has come in and out of favor several times over the last several decades as the dichotomy between remote and centrally-managed computing resources played out; the latest incarnation for centrally-managed computing resources is known as cloud computing.
Timesharing as shown in this film, was a novel concept in the early 1960s. Driven by a desire to more efficiently use expensive computer resources while increasing the interactivity between user and computer (man and machine), timesharing was eventually taken up by industry in the form of special timesharing hardware for mainframe and minicomputer computer systems as well as in sophisticated operating systems to manage multiple users and resources.
Corbato describes how after the mid-1950s, when computers began to become reliable, the next big challenge to improve productivity and efficiency was the development of computer languages, FORTRAN being an example. One of the next bottlenecks in computing, according to Corabto, was the traditional batch processing method of combining many peoples computer jobs into one large single job for the computer to process at one time. He compares batch processing to a group of people catching a bus, all being moved at once.
Timesharing, on the other hand, involves attaching a large number of consoles to the central computer, each of which is given a time-slice of the computers time. While the computer is rapidly switching among user applications and problems, it appears to the user that s/he has complete access to the central computer.
Corbato then describes in technical detail a complex description of timesharing before showing some examples of timesharing from a terminal using a simple program to calculate a simple geometric problem (Pythagorean theorem).
In the long run, Corbato says, timesharing will help address the increasing need for computer time and ease-of-use.

What degree do I need, what do I need to major in and can you tell me about the field
Development – BSEE
Research PhD
Should I study Development Economics?
I am a highschool senior.
Development economics is a graduate-level subject. So go to college, take a few econ classes, and after you’re done with Intermediate Macro, International Macro, and Economic History, you will have an idea if Development Economics is something you want to study…
What is the best web design and development school?
What are the schools with the best curriculum in web design and development? The best one that I found that had both is Full Sail in Orlando.
Please don’t answer by saying it is best to learn by practice or interning, because it is irrelevant to the question. Thanks in advance.
hands down, MIT and all of those bigger schools. from what i have found though, michigan has the best program.
What are the most significant cultural and historical influences on development of children today?
Just working on a psychology assignment and trying to get lots of ideas.
I think the breakdown of our educational system is huge. Also the breakdown of societal structures: sense of close community, spiritual support systems (used to be your "church" family stepped in anytime your family was in need or crisis!), and family structure. In a world where both parents are absent from the home a great deal of the time, children are growing up with far less structure and with less intimate emotional connections to their own parents. You have to wonder what effects this has on their own development – ethically, educationally, in terms of self-image, etc.
One more point. I do a lot of genealogy. It amazes me how capable kids were a century ago – by 18 they could handle adult life and responsibility. This is mostly because a lot more was expected of them. They learned life skills and self-discipline from their parents at a very early age. Nowadays the leisurely lifestyle provides teens with little responsiblity or direction – and that equals little self-esteem and poor life management skills, little preparing them for adult life until into their mid-twenties or later.
What should a childcare practitioner do in order to meet a child’s social and emotional development?
I got 5/10 for this section of my coursework, is there anything else that a child ‘need (s)’ in their social and emotional development….
thanks
Have a look on the EYFS website. Its got each of the six areas covered and tells you what to look for as a practitioner and also when making obs.
Personal, social and emotional is all about making relationships, confidence, behaviour and understanding rules and routines. Hope that helps.
