Hello All,

  Hope you find the following two links of interest:

http://goo.gl/ocHAi
http://goo.gl/lEAy3

The first is the sad news that NASA has unplugged its last mainframe
and the second is a short article on event-driven servers,

enjoy,
John

Thanks for sending these, John!  Just got round to reading the second
one, and the event loop sounds much like the picture I put on the
cover of the 2nd edition of my book.  It also makes me wonder if Java
and C# multithreading are too heavy-duty for what we are trying to do
in FBP?  The AMPS multithreading (IBM mainframe green threads written
in Assembler) was much more light-weight, and we ran a bank on a 2
Mips machine!  See also Sriram Srinivasan's Kilim - http://www.malhar.net/sriram/kilim/
- although IIRC there were some programmability problems with it.
