AbstractThe traditional approach to the implementation of process administration in multiprogrammed systems is to make it part of the run‐time system or ‘kernel’. This implies first, that the implementation is written in assembler language, and secondly that the process administration will be very inflexible. This article outlines a high level language PoMP, a Pascal extension. Following the trend set by Concurrent Pascal and Modula towards integrating ever increasing parts of the ‘kernel’ in the individual application program, PoMP provides language constructs for implementing process administration. It is shown that the multiprogramming language constructs of a number of languages may be ‘imitat
