The Control Data® STAR-100 file storage station

Abstract

Successful experience with the Control Data® 6000 and 7000 computer series has led to implementing improved concepts of distributed computing in the STAR-100 computer system. In the STAR system different computing functions have been physically separated from one another. Each computing function is performed by an independent system unit which possesses its own processing logic and memory. Thus each is performed in its own right in an optimal manner.
