The PDP-5 was
innovative in replacing the radial structure of
earlier designs with an I/O bus. By allowing
peripheral equipment to be added incrementally --
rather than preallocating space, wiring and cable
drivers -- the I/O bus design lowered the base
costs of the system and simplified the
configuring of machines in the field. |
