Yeah, I wasn't specific enough.
The ownership of the model 67 changed to the State of NJ, but it was
operated and present at Princeton, until replaced by a 370/158, which in
turn changed owners back to Princeton in 75.
What OS did you use on the 67?
On the /67 I used TSS with a free account they gave me for being in a
local computer club. On the /91 I mostly used the free stuff but one
summer in the early 70s I had a job speeding up an Ecom professor's
Fortran model. Compiling it with Fortran H rather than G, and adjusting
an assembler routine that managed an external file not to open and close
the file on every call helped a lot.
Paul Hilfinger had a long career at UC Berkeley and is easy to find if you
want to ask him if he has any of his old papers.
