IBM System/360 Model 91

All Hardware

1966
Description

It is specifically designed to handle ultra-high-speed data processing for scientific applications such as space exploration, theoretical astromony, sub-atomic physics and global weather forecasting.

The Model 91's immense computing power results from a combination of several key factors, including:
1.Advanced circuits that switch in billionths of a second;

2.High-density circuit packaging techniques; and

3.A high degree of concurrency, or parallel operations.
