DYNAMIC PROGRAM BEHAVIOR UNDER PAGING.
Abstract
This paper presents empirical data on the dynamic behavior of programs with respect to a time-sharing paging environment. A selection of popular programs constituting a considerable fraction of the normal work load on the existing SDC Time-Sharing System was examined. The entire service spectrum, ranging from conversational to production-type requests, was represented by various aspects of these programs. Data were obtained by interpretive execution of the machine instructions for these programs and are presented in the form of page-demand and usage graphs. The implications of this information for the efficient utilization of page-turning concepts on the next generation of time-sharing computers are discussed. (Author)
