Cambridge Scientific Center

The IBM Cambridge Scientific Center, established in February 1964 by Norm Rasmussen, was situated at 545 "Tech Square", Cambridge, Massachusetts in the same building as MIT's Project MAC. [ [http://www.multicians.org/tech-square.html Tech Square] ] It was later renamed the IBM Scientific Center. [cf. R. J. Creasy, "The origin of the VM/370 time-sharing system", "IBM Journal of Research & Development", Vol. 25, No. 5 (September 1981), "pp." 483-490: "It was later renamed the IBM Scientific Center"]

The center is most notable for creating CP/CMS.

IBM closed the center on July 31, 1992 [ [http://www.princeton.edu/~melinda/neu03.ps POSTS: Waterloo SCRIPT 88.1 (88MAY19) 16:57:07 July 6, 1905] – from a paper by Melinda Varian] .
