Do KI TENEX sources exist?? They had to simulate the BBN paging box
(using the KI page tables as a "Translation Lookaside Buffer").
Someone was working on KA (and KI) simulation in SIMH (to bring the
conversation back around) and ISTR had TOPS-10 6.03 running.
With a simulated KA (and peripherals), the SIMH "TOPS-20" KS10 paging
code probably gives you a big running start at the BBN paging box
(which ISTR I have a document on).
