- To all you kind souls out there.
- I have a piece of course work to do for my HND computer
- studies, and would like some information.
-
-
- I need to know the following:
-
- The evolution of UNIX systems
- major versions of UNIX systems
- approaches towards developing standards for UNIX
- likelihood of the emergence of a single standard
- benefits of the standardization of UNIX to the
- industry, both to suppliers
- and customers
- discussion of open systems and UNIX systems
- future directions for unix
-
- I would also like some comments on :
- "UNIX is one of the most important issues the
- operating systems industry is dealing with
- today"
-
-
- one more thing (as if the above wasn't enough)
- what are the main technical differences
- between all the UNIX versions.
