The Charming Genius of the Apollo Guidance Computer - Brian Troutwine

Brian Troutwine's Code Mesh 2015 talk on the Apollo Guidance Computer. It covers the AGC's design, core rope memory, its interrupt and software behavior, and the pioneering engineering effort behind it.

Recommended as a wonderful overview of the AGC architecture, though one commenter found it uninspiring.
