UNIX History Unix History Unix Timeline Below, you can see the preview of the Unix History (move on the white zone to get a bigger image): This is a simplified diagram of unix history. There are numerous derivative systems not listed in this chart, maybe 10 times more! In the recent past, many electronic companies had their own unix releases. This diagram is only the tip of an iceberg, with a penguin on it ;-). If you want to print this timeline, you can freely download one of the following PDF files: A4 Letter Plotter A4 Letter History Index Here is the ChangeLog of this history. Note 1 : an arrow indicates an inheritance like a compatibility, it is not only a matter of source code. Note 2 : this diagram shows complete systems and [micro]kernels like Mach, Linux, the Hurd... This is because sometimes kernel versions are more appropriate to see the evolution of the system. Note 3 : I have now a page where I explain how I build this chart. Another chart on the wall If you have put this diagram on the wall of your office and have taken a photo of it, please send me a copy and I'll put it on this page. ;-) My other charts: Computer Languages History. Windows History. Some Home Pages Brian Kernighan Dennis Ritchie Ken Thompson Bill Joy Steve Jobs Linus Torvalds Richard Stallman You can also find here some unix people. You may be wondering "Why does Steve Jobs appear in this unix history?". Simply because he has made the best unix computer ever : a NeXTcube powered with the NeXTSTEP operating system. And now : Mac OS X.
