  abstract =     "In this paper we describe POPSS, an event driven
                 simulator which is intended to simulate the activity of
                 a computer system- hardware together with an operating
                 system --- as it processes a work-load. Input to the
                 simulator is in the form of keyword parameters which
                 are used for describing all three components ---
                 hardware, operating system, and workload. POPSS is a
                 simulator as opposed to a simulation language. It is
                 designed to model the inner workings of a computer
                 system in addition to yielding the results usually
                 associated with simulation. The program is highly
                 modular, consisting of some 45 subprograms. Of these,
                 there are 22 modules, each of which represents an
                 operating system component (or possibly a part of one
                 such component). Included in POPSS are built-in
                 replacement features to allow a user the capability of
                 designing alternative resource allocation strategies.
                 These features are in addition to the standard
                 subprogram replacement automatically available through
                 the use of FORTRAN IV.",
