Multics Security Evaluation. Volume IV. Exemplary Performance Under Demanding Workload.
Abstract
The potential of Multics was examined as a candidate system for meeting the workload demands expected to arise from upgrading the computer security capabilities at Air Force Data Services Center. Experimental program runs were made in designs to test the performance of Multics under conditions representative of extremely high computational demands issuing simultaneously from a variety of input data. Multiple runs with a WWMCCS FORTRAN benchmark program were accomplished and analyzed in the light of requirements for operation in a multilevel security environment. Results were favorable to anticipated requirements. No unacceptable throughput was experienced. (Author)
