The North American 701 Monitor

Although constrained by history, schedule, and hardware to triviality when compared to modem operating systems, the North American 701 Monitor was arguably the first operating system to be in operation. Installed in December 1955, the North American 701 Monitor was developed as a prototype monitor to extract more utilization from overburdened IBM 701'8 and pilot test the operating system concep...

Magmatism at the Eurasian–North American modern plate boundary: Constraints from alkaline volcanism in the Chersky Belt (Yakutia)

The Chersky seismic belt (NE-Russia) forms the modern plate boundary of the Eurasian-North American continental plate. The geodynamic evolution of this continent-continent setting is highly complex and remains a matter of debate, as the extent and influence of the Mid-Arctic Ocean spreading center on the North Asian continent since the Eocene remains unclear. The progression from a tensional st...

IOCG Deposits: A Cordilleran Perspective

During the latter part of the Phanerozoic, numerous iron oxide(-Cu-Au) (IOCG) systems formed in parts of the Cordillera of North and South America. They occur in diverse tectonic and magmatic settings with considerable variety in deposit associations and characteristics. Although there are general patterns, there is no simple, all-encompassing descriptive model; a comparison with the diversity ...

North American blastomycosis.

N ORTH American blastomycosis (Gilchrist’s disease) is a granulomatous, infectious disease caused by the fungus, Blastomyces dermatitidis (Gilchrist and Stokes, 1898). The malady, in its cutaneous form, was first described by Gilchrist’ in 1894. A few years later, together with Stokes, he was able to isolate and culture the causative organism which he designated as B. dermatitibis.23 The first ...
