stanwyck@ihuxr.UUCP (Don Stanwyck) (07/13/84)

A version of the on-line COCOMO model is available from Wang Institute of
Graduate Studies for $50.00 if you provide the tape, $70.00 if they provide the
tape.  It is available for VMS, UNIX 4.1, Primos, MS-DOS (Wang PC), MS-DOS
(IBM-PC), and AUX (Apollo).  

For ordering contact:
	Manager, Software Distribution
	Wang Institute of Graduate Studies
	Tyng Road
	Tyngsboro, MA 01879

For permission to modify/port/etc. contact:
	Director, Software Distribution
	Wang Institute of Graduate Studies
	Tyng Road
	Tyngsboro, MA 01879

I have no affiliation with WIoGS or any related institution.  I merely looked
into this not long ago, and happened to have the info still in front of me.

If you are talking about the wicomo tape, a tiny add-on bit of info;
a very minor mod, not even a real mod, gets it running on 4.2 as well.
The only thing that doesn't survive is that wicomo does things like

while ( not eof ) and ( not eoln ) do .....

and 4.2 pc balks at that at run time, since testing for eoln at eof is NOT
permitted. At two spots in io.h, in the routine 
inputfileline
change to the proper sequence of nested ifs and whiles.

Since this is more a bug fix than a mod/port, no permission was sought.

It is a fair to middling program, but it is worth the extra trouble to mod
the package to use separate compilation, which it does NOT right now. 
Berkelely pc takes forever and a day with this giant...
Also, wicomo relies on the distinction between upper and lower case, hardly
proper for an ostensibly portable program.

I've got the originals and diffs on tape, so I'll post the diffs later,
after vacations are over, if ANYONE acxtively asks me to.
