Summary

Implements the first PR proposed in issue #46.

Changes

  • ARCHITECTURE.md added at the repo root — full architecture overview: MR95/MR96 JIT compiler design, the two-phase reference/extract execution pattern, job-to-job data flow, DD interface, and PARM keyword reference.
  • Four 1994 Doug Kunkel technical diagrams (slide1–4.jpeg) embedded in the postscript section, each with a paragraph of commentary connecting the drawing to the architectural structures described in the document (Sub-Task Work Areas, Extraction Logic Management, Reference Data Lookup, View Extract Data Management).
  • Postscript narrowed to focus on Doug Kunkel — principal inventor of the memory architecture — with a single condensed history paragraph covering the engine's arc from Alaska 1982 through the Linux Foundation open source era.
  • README.md updated with a direct link to ARCHITECTURE.md.

Closes #46
