The main machine in the line was the GE-225 (1961). [5] [3] It used a 20-bit word, of which 13 bits could be used for an address.Along with the basic central processing unit (CPU) the system could also have had a floating-point unit (the "Auxiliary Arithmetic Unit"), or a fixed-point decimal option with three six-bit decimal digits per word.

Hardware and software features combine to render the operating system unusually secure for an operating system of its generation and class. Multics influenced the design of the hardware, with gate-oriented secure transfer-of-control instructions and a hardware-enforced system of security levels very similar to that of the famous Multics rings.
The software was originally created by the Smallworld company founded in Cambridge, England, in 1989 by Dick Newell and others.
