THE DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A MULTI-TASK BATCH OPERATING SYSTEM AND PAGING INTERPRETER FOR THE PDP-11

摘要

MIPS is a multi-task batch operating system designed to support a community of student users taking introductory courses in assembly language programming. The system features disk optimization routines which minimize disk access time, a general purpose filing system, and an interpreter which pages the user program to implement a 32K virtual machine. MIPS is written in the PAL-11 assembly language for use on the PDP-11/20 computer. (Author)
