Abstract

Application of microprogramming to enhance the performance of operating systems has been discussed in the literature in the past [7,1,5]. Two examples of such applications can be found in [4,6]. This paper discusses the philosophy behind the microprogrammed implementation of a scheduler, used in a large, time-shared computer incorporating several processors.
