Abstract
A description is given of PLURIX, a Unix-like operating system
designed to control PEGASUS-32X, a symmetric multiprocessor supermicro
based on several Motorola 68020 microprocessor. The differences and
similarities between PLURIX and Unix are examined. The multiprocessing
capabilities of PLURIX in the PEGASUS-32X environment are discussed,
covering the hardware environment, multiprocessing objectives, mutual
exclusion primitives, and event primitives
