CTSS: /C·T·S·S/, n. Compatible Time-Sharing System. An early (1963) experiment in the
design of interactive timesharing operating systems, ancestral to
Multics, Unix, and
ITS. The name ITS
(Incompatible Time-sharing System) was a hack on CTSS, meant both as a joke
and to express some basic differences in philosophy about the way I/O
services should be presented to user programs. See
