Integration of rapid access disk memories into real-time processors
Richard G. S. Spencer · 1970
In large real-time systems such as telephone, traffic control, and process control, the required amount of high-speed random access memory becomes cost prohibitive. In these types of systems, much of the data stored in memory is accessed infrequently. For such low priority data, a rapid access disk or drum memory controller can be used to advantage; such a controller is described in this paper.
