Ronald Edward Joy · Calhoun: The Naval Postgraduate School Institutional Archive (Naval Postgraduate School) · 1975
The design, implementation, and evaluation of an adaptive scheduling algorithm for the M U N I X operating system is reported here. MUNIX, a multiprocessing version of UNIX, was designed to run on a dual PDF 11/45 multiprocessor system. topics covered include: a survey of adaptive scheduling, laboratory equipment configuration, scheduling with MUNIX, benchmark testing, and non-adaptive scheduling changes. Conclusions and suggestions for possible improvements are also included.
