Abstract

Allen-Babcock's RUSH (Remote Users of Shared Hardware) comprises some 80 modules of processors operating in a time-sharing mode on an IBM SYSTEM/360, Model 50. The RUSH Monitor-Executive controls 60 simultaneous terminal users whose programs' reside in a large bulk store (2,097,152 bytes-directly addressable). RUSH co-exists with Operating System/360, option 2 (multi-programming, fixed tasks) and uses the file management schemes of this operating system.
