In the middle of 1984, in the MERASTER Scientific-production centre of control Systems (CNPSS) in Katowice, which at that time was one of the biggest producers of computer systems in Poland, it was decided to construct an equipment and software that enabled realization of multi-access systems on the basis of a very simple microcomputer, an equivalent to LSI-11/03 of Digital Equipment. To accomplish this ambitious task and because of external economic conditions, it was necessary to construct a new equipment and a new operating system in just 15 months. This paper describes guidelines for designing, construction and production of this new equipment and software, as well as organisation and the course of work on the realization of the system. That taks, from today’s perspective probably perceived as unrealistic and technically impossible to accomplish (microcomputer’s procesor had an operating memory of 56 kilobytes, while memory requirements of today’s operating systems as windows or Linux are several thousand higher) was, however, fulfilled within the 15-month period only by a team of several people. nowadays, realization of a similar system would certainly require the work of at least hundreds of people and would take several dozen months. Final effects of work on the described system were of financial and non-financial nature. CNPSS MERASTER sold approximately 300 systems during 3 years, which was quite profitable for the company. of non-financial character were the experience and skills of the employees, gained throughout their time of work on the system, both in terms of programming experience and skills resulting from realization of a complex system in the whole cycle: from the concept to implementation and operation, and in terms of conclusions and practical experience obtained during the organisation of work. That experience was appreciated at the All-Poland Programming Fair SOFTARG’86, where it received the Ist prize, and also by the Minister, head of the Scientific-Technical Development and Implementation office in the form of the Ist Special Award for the authors of the software. Another confirmation of the authors’ skills was submission of patent claims by a team of construction engineers of the Semiconductor External Memory that was created specifically for the purpose of the described

The authoress considers the term master. For some people a master means simply a teacher, and this usage is the most popular one. But those both meanings, though have something in common, are not identical. A master is not chosen by his job position, moreover, this is a pupil who chooses him; a master could be a person who died long time ago, with whom we had no personal contact. A master is the person who knows better, who was able to posses definitely an area of knowledge as well as art and can serve as an example for his adepts. Master, this word makes us think of the word magician, because he is like a magician, initiated in the most mysterious secrets. The authoress stresses that in various times various masters were chosen just by following them. Analysis of these choices brings quite good characteristics of a society and is one of the subject-matters in the contemporary history of culture.

The paper presents the results of research into relation between the lexemes 'mistrz' (master) and 'uczen' (apprentice or student). Some phrases (mój mistrz, mój uczen) and syntactic features suggest a kind of convertive relation. Both of the lexemes are - for example - a threeactant: 'ktos, czyjs, w jakiejs dziedzinie wiedzy (/sztuki) (someone, someone's, in a field of science (/art)). This feature is not sufficient to make a convertive relation. In Polish Language the 'mistrz-uczen' relation is a unilateral one. The relation depends on the apprentice who selects a master. The master confirms this only if 'uczen' (apprentice) is taught by the master and if the master is regarded by the apprentice as a skilled, knowledgeable person.
