Abstract: The performance of threads is limited primarily by the overhead of two kinds of switching: vertical switching (user/kernel domain switching) and horizontal switching (context switching between threads). Although these switchings are indispensable in some situations, existing thread mechanisms involve unnecessary switchings on multiprogrammed systems, because of inappropriateinterfaces between the operating system kernel and user-level programs. This paper presents a set of interfaces between... (Update)
