Abstract

A system of store-to-store swapping incorporated into TSO on the Cambridge IBM 370/165 is described. Unoccupied store in the dynamic area is used as the first stage of a two-stage backing store for swapping time-sharing sessions; a fixed-head disc provides the second stage. The performance and costs of the system are evaluated.
