The transputer virtual memory system

[摘要] ENGLISH ABSTRACT:The transputer virtual memory system provide, for the transputer without memorymanagement primitives, a viable virtual memory system. This report evaluatesthe architecture and its parameters. The basic software is also implemented a.nddescribed. The disk subsystem with software and hard,,'are is also evaluated in asingle disk environment.It is shown that the unique features of the TVM system has advantages and disadvantageswhen compared to conventional virtual memory systems. One of theadvantages is that a conventional operating system with memory protection cannow also be implemented on the transputer. The main conclusion is that this isa performance effective implementation of a virtual memory system with uniquefeatures that should be exploited further.
