It was originally developed as a successor to BBN LISP . Interlisp-10, the earliest version, ran on PDP-10 machines. When Danny Bobrow moved from BBN to PARC, he brought Interlisp with him, and it became the popular Lisp dialect for AI researchers at Stanford University.
Later a virtual machine was defined in order to facilitate porting, known as the "Interlisp virtual machine".
At PARC, Interlisp was ported to the Lisp machines in development there, and was known as Interlisp-D.
A 1982 port of the virtual machine to the VAX running BSD Unix resulted in Interlisp-VAX.
In 1987, Interlisp was ported to the Sun Microsystems SPARCSPARC S calable P rocessor ARC hitecture) is a RISC microprocessor architecture originally designed in 1985 by Sun Microsystems. SPARC is a registered trademark of SPARC International, Inc. an organisation established in 1989 to promote the SPARC and to p 4 architecture by a team at Xerox AI Systems (XAIS) in Sunnyvale, CaliforniaSunnyvale is a city located in Santa Clara County, California, USA. It is one of the major cities that make up the Silicon Valley. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 131,760. Sunnyvale is headquarters to several high-tech companies. Later that year, XAIS, which had been a money-loser for some time for Xerox, was spun off into Envos Corporation , which almost immediately failed.
