| | Time-sharing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Time sharing is what allows multiple users simultaneous access to a single computer system through remote terminals through which they give input and receive output to the computer. | | | Another modern idea relating to time sharing are distributed computing projects. | | | Time-sharing is an approach to interactive computing in which a single computer is used to provide apparently simultaneous interactive general-purpose computing to multiple users by sharing processor time. |

| | REMINISCENCES ON THE HISTORY OF TIME SHARING |
| | I remember thinking about time-sharing about the time of my first contact with computers and being surprised that this wasn't the goal of IBM and all the other manufacturers and users of computers. | | | At the same time that CTSS, the BBN system, and the EE Department systems were being developed, M.I.T. had started to plan for a next generation computer system. | | | By time-sharing, I meant an operating system that permits each user of a computer to behave as though he were in sole control of a computer, not necessarily identical with the machine on which the operating system is running. |

| | The goal of program (code and data) sharing was given extensive consideration in the design of the BBN Pager. | | | For example, this permits shared programs to be prepared with pre-constructed data areas which will be kept shared if not modified, and put in private storage if changed. | | | The contents of the virtual memory at any time are specified by the virtual memory map of 512 slots, which the user may read or write. |

| | An Experimental Time-Sharing System |
| | Ordinarily the time of a quantum, being the basic time unit, should be as small as possible without excessive overhead losses when the supervisor switches from one program in high-speed memory to another. | | | In any case, considerable caution should be used with capacity and computer response time estimates since they are critically dependent upon the distribution functions for the user response time, t-sub-u, and the user program size, and the computational capacity requested by each user. | | | The basic technique for a time-sharing system is to have many persons simultaneously using the computer through typewriter consoles with a time-sharing supervisor program sequentially running each user program in a short burst or quantum of computation. |

| | Research indicates that data conferencing (the collaborative viewing and editing of slides, documents or other content in real time through a computer-based interface) is particularly effective when relational or contextual information is being shared; this factor makes it a valuable tool for knowledge creation. | | | Both aspects of real-time knowledge sharing are designed to remove barriers of time and physical distances. | | | While the scenario detailed in the sidebar is useful to describe the use of knowledge in the value chain of a small business that operates in a relatively controlled environment, today's successful businesses must face more complex issues. |

| | A program that reads or writes files in units of 512 bytes has an advantage over a program that reads or writes a single byte at a time, but the gain is not immense; it comes mainly from the avoidance of system overhead. | | | Conversely, if a single byte is read, the system determines whether the secondary storage block in which the byte is located is already in one of the system's buffers; if so, the byte can be returned immediately. | | | For example, there is the question of who is to be charged for the space a file occupies, because all directory entries for a file have equal status. |

| | time-sharing -- Encyclopædia Britannica |
| | Because computer time was so costly, researchers had to schedule limited access time. | | | Any mistakes, typographical or programmatic, in a user's input (punch cards) would necessitate a long wait for the next available slot in the computer's sequential schedule. | | | Beyond a certain point, adding more users slowed the system so much that it became unresponsive, or seemingly “asleep.” The solution was to find a way to network various local time-sharing networks together so that computational resources could be shared. |

| | Third generation: Timesharing |
| | This observation, and a long-standing belief that the productivity of computer users (as opposed to the productivity of the computer itself) would be optimised by conversational interaction with the computer, led to the development of timesharing systems in the 1960s. | | | If a computer's time could be sliced or shared among a small number of batch jobs, why couldn't it be chopped into much smaller slices and spread among a much larger community of interactive users? | | | Early developments included spooling (from Simultaneous Peripheral Operation On-Line), which allowed a computer to process other work at full speed while devoting a small portion of its attention to running slow devices such as card readers and printers. |
