(b) Categorized "software" as follows:
(1) "Development systems" as follows:
(i) "Development systems" employing "high-level language" and designed for or containing "programmes" or "databases" special to the development or production of:
(a) “Specially designed software" embargoed by any other Item in these Lists;
(b) "Software" embargoed by sub-items (a)(2) or (c)(3) of this Item; including any subset designed or modified for use as part of such a "development system";
(ii) "Development systems" employing "high-level language" and designed for or containing the "software" tools and "databases" for the development or production of "software” or any subset designed or modified for use as part of a "development system" such as, or equivalent to: (a) Ada Programming Support Environment (APSE);
(b) Any subset of APSE, as follows:
(1) Kernel APSE;
(2) Minimal APSE;
(3) Ada compilers specially designed as an integrated subset of APSE; or
(4) Any other subset of APSE;
(c) Any superset of APSE; or
(d) Any derivative of APSE;
(2) "Programming systems" as follows:
(i) "Cross-hosted" compilers and "cross-hosted" assemblers;
Note:
For "cross-hosted" compilers or "cross-hosted" assemblers which have to be used in conjunction with microprocessor or microcomputer development instruments or systems described in Item IL 1529, see that item.
(ii) Compilers or interpreters designed or modified for use as part of a "development system" embargoed by (1) above;
(iii) Disassemblers, decompilers or other "software" which convert "programmes" in object or assembly language into a higher level language, except simple debugging "application software", such as mapping, tracing, check-point/restart, breakpoint, dumping and the display of the storage contents or their assembly language equivalent;
(3) "Diagnostic systems" or "maintenance systems" designed or modified for use as part of a "development system" embargoed by (1) above;
(4) "Operating systems" as follows:
(i) *Operating systems" designed or modified for “digital computers” or "related equipment" exceeding any of the following limits:
(a) Central processing unit-"main storage" combinations:
(1) "Total processing data rate"-48 million bit per second;
(2) "Total connected capacity” of “main storage”-25.2 million bit;
(3) "Virtual storage" capability-512 MByte
(b) Input/output control unit-drum, disk or cartridge-type streamer tape drive combinations:
(1) "Total transfer rate"-15 million bit per second;
(2) "Total access rate”- -320 accesses per second;
(3) Total connected "net capacity”---7 000 million bit;
(4) "Maximum bit transfer rate" of any drum or disk drive- 10.3 million bit per second;
