Notes for improving MUSIC-N

Sourced

 * MUSIC was developed by Mathews on an IBM 704 at Bell Labs in 1957 (this original version was later referred to as MUSIC I)
 * MUSIC II was developed by Mathews on an IBM 7094 at Bell Labs in 1958
 * MUSIC III was developed by Mathews on an IBM 7090 at Bell Labs in 1960
 * MUSIC IV was developed by Mathews and J. Miller on an IBM 7094 at Bell Labs in 1963
 * Derivatives of MUSIC IV include:
 * MUSIC IVB was developed by G. Winham and H. Howe on an IBM 7094 at Princeton University in 1965
 * MUSIC 4BF was developed by H. Howe and G. Winham on an IBM System/360 at Princeton University in 1967
 * MUSIC 360 was developed by Barry Vercoe on an IBM System/360 at Princeton University in 1969
 * MUSIC 11 was developed by B. Vercoe, S. Haflich, R. Hale, and C. Howe on a DEC PDP-11 at MIT in 1973
 * MUS10 was developed by J. Chowning, D. Poole, and L. Smith on a DEC PDP-10 at in Stanford University 1966


 * MUSIC V was developed by Mathews and J. Miller on a GE 645 in 1966 at Bell Labs

Trivia
"The computation cost to produce the music [ on an IBM 7090 ] may typically come to as much as $100 per minute of music. Fortunately, computation costs are steadily decreasing."
