A description of the Burroughs Operational Systems Simulator (BOSS) is given. A BOSS process is shown which models a system disk call. The concept of embedded processes is introduced, exemplified and expanded using a model for retrieval in a message switch. The modeling of virtual memory in a computer system is discussed. A process sets the parameters for the use of a central processing unit (CPU) and then calls an embedded process that handles the events leading to CPU action. All events involved with the model for automatic search for core space and memory overlay are shown.
