"Operation Reset" and "The free city of Krakow"

[kato13]

I replaced reset with something similar to the Linux operating system. Except rather that it being a development of Linus Torvalds it was a development of a Polish Grad student who was working in field of Cryptography.

The power of the operating system was its light weight, platform portability and scalability. If the project was completed it would have allowed the massive scaled computing necessary for cryptography to be performed behind the Iron Curtain with available relatively weak chips (due to the restrictions on imports).

The post war strength of the OS is it allowing the reuse of many lower powered computer chips (such as those found in video games) to replicate higher capacity CPUs.

In other words the operating system would allow many undamaged dormant chips to be clustered together to regain some of the prewar computing levels.
