| Abstract: |
Multiprogramming is an increasingly important part of today's computing systems. Time-sharing enables interactive and compute intensive programs to progress simultaneously, giving fast response times while still maintaining high throughput overall, Good resource management is at the heart of an effective time-sharing system and must be applied to all shared components to achieve balanced utilization and avoid bottlenecks that could degrade performance.
