Abstract
This thesis describes a scheme for processor multiplexing in a multiple user, multiple processor computer system. The scheme is based upon a distributed supervisor which may be different for different users. The processor multiplexing method provides smooth inter-process communication, treatment of input/output control as a special case of inter-process communication, and provision for a user to specify parallel processing or simultaneous input/output without interrupt logic.
