Eine Kombo, die ich nicht erwartet hätte. #Transputer und #DDR.

2 #Inmos #T800 Prototypen-Boards mit Chips aus aller Welt.

Sogar die berühmten 1Mbit-Ram-Chips wurden verbaut.

At least with #occam and the rest of the tools from #INMOS, transputers are also programmed in the "bee" way rather than the "hive" way. What makes occam and transputers special is that they were built to be bees from the start! The computer and software architectures that underlie most cloud systems evolved from settings where there was only ever one computer: sometimes a large, expensive minicomputer that hosted multiple users, other times a desktop PC that was kept running overnight to do various server-like duties. The facilities that let multiple computers work together were added _post hoc_, and it shows. Local threads of one program share data in a way that differs from how separate programs on the same machine share data, which is different to how programs on separate computers share data --- and so on. Some programmers' aids like libraries and frameworks try to hide this complexity, but you can always feel the ancient rivets and seams underneath the shiny new wallpaper. (2/3)

So after a quick search I found some details about the #newport #fab. Built by #inmos , currently working at 180nm to 700 nm. When I started working in semiconductors, we were moving to 150 (20 years ago). I see Wikipedia has a list of semiconductor fabrication plants, need to track down my uncles old company. https://www.ipcei-me.eu/newport-wafer-fab/
