This is
an operating system used to carry out automatically many operating tasks,
otherwise performed manually.
It
controls the file-store, checks user's budgets and performs scheduling i.e.
makes it possible to perform several jobs, of various kinds, simultaneously
Multi-access is also organized by GEORGE 3 which allows a number of
teletypewriters to be connected to the central processor through a multiplexor
on a time-sharing basis.
These
are available for the standard programming languages, FORTRAN, ALGOL and
COBOL.
Their
main function is to compile a source program but in addition some of then will
also consolidate semi-compiled programs and execute object programs.
Five
series of compilers are available: these in ascending order of complexity are
S, P, J, Q and full series, providing facilities appropriate to each class of
user.
A large
number of applications packages developed by I.C.L. for use with the 1904A
system are available in the J.U.C.C.:
