The Computer History Simulation Project
The Computer History Simulation Project is a loose Internet-based collective
of people interested in restoring historically significant computer hardware
and software systems by simulation. The goal of the project is to create
highly portable system simulators and to publish them as freeware on the
Internet, with freely available copies of significant or representative software.
Simulators
SIMH is a highly portable, multi-system simulator.
-
Download the latest sources
for SIMH (V3.8-1 updated 08-Feb-2009
- see change log).
-
Download interim corrections - bug fixes that
will be included in the next version of SIMH.
-
Download a zip file containing Windows
executables for all the SIMH simulators. The VAX and PDP-11 are
compiled without Ethernet support. Versions with Ethernet support are
available here (requires that
WinPcap 4.0 be installed). If you download the executables, you should
download the source archive as well, as it contains the documentation and
other supporting files.
-
Download PDF copies of the documentation
here.
-
If your host system is Alpha/VMS, and you want Ethernet support, you need
to download the VMS Pcap library and execlet
here.
SIMH implements simulators for:
-
Data General Nova, Eclipse
-
Digital Equipment Corporation PDP-1, PDP-4, PDP-7, PDP-8, PDP-9, PDP-10,
PDP-11, PDP-15, VAX
