One thing between 1960s Sutherland and 1990s Looking Glass he left out I think was column-oriented databases (70s and 80s). That might have been important for the performance aspects that drove the resurgence in ECS, though I know he's focused more in this talk on how ECS also improves the structure for understanding and implementing complex systems: in the 70s and early 80s memory latency probably hadn't begun diverging from instruction rate to such an extreme degree, but in disks it was always a big issue. Also would like to hear more about Thinglab and if it had some good stuff to it. |
