MINITS

PDP-11 operating system created at MIT.

Its design is vaguely reminiscent of ITS.

It was mostly used in the MIT network, as 'bridges' (routers, to use the contemporary nomenclature) and terminal concentrators. Also used to drive graphical terminals, and provide Chaosnet front ends to KL10 processors.
