....is to assist the Taskmaster in context switching the processors as quickly as possible. A better solution would be to provide hardware support for fast context switching in the processor itself, such as that prototyped in the Denelcor HEP[29] Some current RISC processors, such as the AMD 29000[16] and the Sun SPARC[12] provide support for multiple contexts in the form of multiple register banks, and TID tagging of cache and TLB entries. The APRIL project at MIT[1] is investigating the use of multiple register banks in just this way using a modified SPARC processor. Tests: TM TM Message ....
