proposial under a view of computer archaelogy: more of early and eastern europe parts
a assembler tool primary with a wide influence on its driven device in one part (A) of view and in a more software-side view on the second part(B): DDP 516 Honeywell assembler

A: - the assembler seems the basic tool for all the controlls written for the first arpa-net multiplexor ( "Interface Message Processors" or IMP), based on above named machine.

B: - a general wide influence coming from this software-tool was the, on its basics, forked assembler in eastern germany. The so called "KRS 4200" - device product line, made by VEB ROBOTRON (situated in the town Radeberg near Dresden). Around this device not only a ddP516 assembler fork was realiesd. A interesting part of the software framework around was also a german language based interpreting language called DIWA. All the items of the language were abrevations of german verbs and nomens: like "DRUCKE" for print command in log form or short: "DR". Interesting that the forked assembler was simalary to DDP516 assembler but not equal. It coused by the different implementation of the "DDP516 device-fork" (or not forked) the TTL-device where it was running on. The so produced mini-computers were broadly used in science and industry in the GDR (DDR). (By the way: The author has implemented on this technic a IBM360/DDP516 gateway-tool for some MT data-chains in the early 80teens.)
