there was science center http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subtopic.html#545tech report done on the initial port of vmm from cp67 to vm370 L. Wheeler, CSC VM/370 Extended II: Virtual Memory Management, IBM Science Center Report ZZ20-6002, July 1974, 19 pp., shared segments, migration. the dcss subset of vmm http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subtopic.html#mmap was then done for vm/370 release 3, 30 years ago. vmm also included a lot of work on address independent code: http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subtopic.html#adcon mmap support allowed the use of the paging kernel support to directly read/write any standard disk area. it eliminated a lot of the overhead of simulating virtual i/o (among other things). a little drift, i included some part of "migration" in the resource manager. http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2001e.html#45 VM/370 Resource Manager from above (taken from the "blue" letter): Enhancements are made to VM/370 in these areas: Scheduling ALgorithm. A fair share approach to distribute the resources of the system equally among the users with improved interactive performance on trivial commands. Page Migration. Designation of preferred paging areas on DASD with migration to other devices is based on how long the pages are unused. Swaptable Migration. Seldom used segment tables are swapped to DASD thereby freeing up main storage. Reset Pages and Time Stamp Segments. The working set algorithm improves page selection, while time stamping facilitates page migration and swaptable migration. Working Set Estimate. Dynamically adjusted multiprogramming levels are achieved by periodic evaluation of total system performance based on feedback control. Fast Redispatch Extension. The number of cases where fast redispatch implementation is used after privileged instruction simulation and I/O interruptions are increased. Enable Window. It increases the extent to which VM/370 runs enabled and thus can accept I/O and external interruptions Set Favored Extension. The specification of multiple users with the set favored percent option is provided. Indicate Command Extension. Additional performance status data is made available to the systems performance evaluation routine. Selective Path Length Reductions. -- Anne & Lynn Wheeler | http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/
