Abstract: Techniques to make time sharing attractive on a computer with a small central memory are presented. "Small" is taken to mean that only one user program plus a monitor will fit into the memory at any time. The techniques depend on having two levels of secondary storage: level 1, several times larger than the main memory and quite fast; and level 2, many times larger and slower than level 1.
