The CDC 6000 series is a discontinued family of mainframe computers manufactured by Control Data Corporation in the 1960s.[1] It consisted of the CDC 6200,[2] CDC 6300, CDC 6400, CDC 6500,[3] CDC 6600 and CDC 6700[4] computers, which were all extremely rapid and efficient for their time. Each is a large, solid-state, general-purpose, digital computer that performs scientific and business data processing as well as multiprogramming, multiprocessing, Remote Job Entry, time-sharing, and data management tasks under the control of the operating system called SCOPE (Supervisory Control Of Program Execution).[5][6][7] By 1970[8] there also was a time-sharing oriented operating system named KRONOS.[9] They were part of the first generation of supercomputers.[10] The 6600 was the flagship of Control Data's 6000 series.[11][12]
