A high performance computing system for time critical applications
T. J. Gracon, R. A. Nolby, F. J. Sansom · 1971
The increasing complexity of current time critical computer applications has generated requirements for large scale, general purpose, digital computers in real-time systems. Yet, few real-time applications can singly provide the economic support for such a major system. This high computational capability-reasonable cost/study need has led to the development of systems that are capable of running two or more time critical jobs concurrently, in addition to local batch processing, remote batch, communications, and interactive graphics.
