Abstract

This paper describes a statistical evaluation of the performance of the swap scheduling algorithm of an interactive computer system and an investigation into foreground-background scheduling to improve system performance. Input traffic, computer service time demands, and system performance were statistically analyzed. Based on the results of these analyses performance enhancements for the system were determined and then evaluated through use of a validated simulation model.
