The Data Director is a multi-user timesharing computer system which allows file manipulation (i.e., editing, printing, punching, etc.) and file transport between it and the OCTOPUS computer system. The heart of the Data Director is an Interdata 7/16 HSALU mini-computer with a 10-Megabyte disk. Data Director users use 9600-baud CRT terminals to interact with the Data Director. The main purposes of the Data Director are to provide a fast, stable, and reliable system for editing and to provide remote punching of files.
