SIMMON was first described at the IBM "SimSymp 1968" symposium, held at Rye, New York. SIMMON was a hypervisor, similar to the IBM CP-40 system that was being independently developed at the Cambridge Scientific Center at about that same time. The chief difference from CP-40 was that SIMMON supported a single
