Buchholz's 'Planning a Computer System: Project Stretch' is a good start,
but I'd be interested in hearing about any other technical sources that
folks know about. -C
I wonder if there is anywhere near enough information
available to do a
Stretch.

Now, the IBM machine you (or someone) should _really_ do is the IBM
Stretch
(7030); although judged a commercial failure at
the time, in retrospect
it's
clearly one of the most ground-breaking designs
of all time. (In fact, I
have
a hard time coming up with other machines with
the same level of
impact/influence, in terms of CPU internal architecture. Maybe Atlas, or
the
801?)
