Abstract :
New system concepts are discussed within the framework of market requirements and the design goals which are to meet them. These goals are: 1) Programming and compiling aids for increased operating efficiency and flexibility, 2) Higher machine speeds for increased throughput and reduced job cost, 3) Multiprogramming (time sharing) and multiprocessing (load sharing) for greater concurrent utilization of system hardware, 4) System exchanges for greater flexibility in system hardware complement and allocation.
