MS/8

Encyclopedia : M : MS : MS8 : MS/8

MS/8 or The RL Monitor System was an operating system developed for the PDP-8 in 1966 by Richard F. Lary. It was submitted to DECUS in 1970. It was a disk oriented system, faster than its predecessor the 4K Disk Monitor System, with tricks to make it run quickly on DECtape based systems. MS/8 has since been replaced by P?S/8 and COS-310.
