An interrupt control for the B5000 data processor system
R. V. Bock · 1963
Today it is an accepted fact that for a data processing system to operate efficiently, a comprehensive executive program is required to control dynamically the use of the system. The purpose of such a program is to increase throughput by reducing lost system time. The effectiveness of the executive routine will, to a very large extent, be determined by the special hardware features providing the interface between the executive program and object program.
