Can you, please, define the meaning of upward and downward
compatibility? I had never seen this terms before this thread, so it is
possible that I don't understand the meaning.
The term comes from Brooks. Specifically, he applied it to the
S/360 line of computers which had a very wide performance and
price range, and programs (including operating systems) were
binary compatible from the lowest to the highest performance and
price machine.
