Another thing I was curious about that was looking thorough JOSS-II stuff during my time off from school on Google Scholar and this appeared as a citation:

"JOSS PDP-6 system computer programs : JOSS Monitor, J Interpreter, A Arithmetic, CX Distributor, D Disc Service, M Disc Maintenance, TAPE Routines"

It appears to be at University of Southern California in their library according to WorldCat, but I don't know if I can access this. I don't know if it's the same as JOSS: User Scheduling and Resource Allocation since that appears in the search.

But, it sounds like a source listing according to WorldCat. It says, "Computer programmed prints "August 1966.""

Thanks! Yeah, it looks like they have the RAND archives from the 1950s-90s. It looks like it requires contact and a physical visit to access them like I was suspecting. Something I may be able to arrange. I hope. It might become a summer thing.

That's exciting! I remember that you guys wrote something about JOSS a while ago, but only now actually got to look at the issues here. :)

And I just saw this! Sorry! I've been extremely busy with other things.

I don't have the time to do an archive dive down in Los Angeles, ATM. I thought I would have time over the summer but that looks like it won't be possible. I'm trying to finish my college education.

I'll entrust this to you, aap, and Lars for the time being, sebras. I'll help if I get a chance.
