Abstract:

The principle of benchmark measurement is applied to yet another time sharing system, theMichigan Terminal System MTS, and thus complete the comparison of the three time sharing systems for the IBM 36067 Computer. MTS is also evaluated from both a users view and a performance view against the CP67 and OSMVT combination now in use at the Naval Postgraduate School. The concept of Load Factor and its use is expanded. Use of measurement techniques to determine load factors are discussed with extension of the load factor concept to measure system loads on a continuous basis. An Operators Manual for MTS is presented to aid beginners in the operation of MTS. Author
