Ok, so now it's time to reveal the new 'device' I've been working on that I mentioned a few days ago. It is in fact the MA780 multi-port memory as used by the VAX-11/782. Simulator source is now on Github and binaries (for Win32) are available on my website along with a guide on how to setup VAX/VMS for asymmetric multi-processing:
http://www.9track.net/simh/vax782/ This simulator relies on a new module 'sim_ipc' which has O/S specific code for inter-process communication. This module should work on at least Windows, VMS and POSIX compliant UNIX variants but no doubt some more work will be required in this area to make it truly portable. There are a few known issues as noted on my website but please try this out and let me know how you get on. I suspect the simulation is not totally accurate as there was very little documentation available to base this on. Does anyone have a copy of the following manuals?
