System aspects of large-problem computation and display
Jacob E. Fromm, D. E. Schreiber · IBM Systems Journal · 1972
In designing and implementing programs for simulating the Navier-Stokes equations of incompressible viscous flow and for displaying the simulation results, the following features of the System/360 Operating System are particularly useful: • FORTRAN variable-dimensioned arrays • FORTRAN data set sequence numbers • Assembler language in combination with FORTRAN • Execution-time storage allocation • Low-priority program execution in a multiprogramming environment • Multi-data set volumes and multi-volume data sets • Multiprogram sharing of data sets resident in direct-access storage
