/* BEGIN INCLUDE FILE - dm_im_ci_header.incl.pl1 */ /* DESCRIPTION: Each node (control interval) in the index has a header which describes the contents of that node. Although there are two different kinds of headers, leaf and branch, they have a great deal in common, the common_ci_header. The common_ci_header states which slots are used by the keys (leaf or branch) in the key_range substructure. There is an "upward pointer" to the node's parent branch key (parent_id_string). There are pointers to the previous and next nodes (previous_id and next_id) on the same level to facilitate rotation of keys, and sequential searching. There is also a count of how much space is in use by the keys. */ /* HISTORY: Written by Lindsey Spratt, 03/29/82. Modified: 10/25/84 by Lindsey L.

This donation is made also to give evidence of the common contributions of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Bell Laboratories, General Electric, Honeywell Information Systems Inc., Honeywell Bull Inc., Groupe Bull and Bull HN Information Systems Inc. to the development of this operating system. Multics development was initiated by Massachusetts Institute of Technology Project MAC (1963-1970), renamed the MIT Laboratory for Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence in the mid 1970s, under the leadership of Professor Fernando Jose Corbato. Users consider that Multics provided the best software architecture for managing computer hardware properly and for executing programs. Many subsequent operating systems incorporated Multics principles. Multics was distributed in 1975 to 2000 by Group Bull in Europe , and in the U.S. by Bull HN Information Systems Inc., as successor in interest by change in name only to Honeywell Bull Inc. and Honeywell Information Systems Inc. . ----------------------------------------------------------- Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute these programs and their documentation for any purpose and without fee is hereby granted,provided that the below copyright notice and historical background appear in all copies and that both the copyright notice and historical background and this permission notice appear in supporting documentation, and that the names of MIT, HIS, Bull or Bull HN not be used in advertising or publicity pertaining to distribution of the programs without specific prior written permission.
