Windows NT Architecture - Kernel Mode - Executive
... The Windows Executive services make up the low-level kernel-mode portion, and are contained in the file NTOSKRNL.EXE ... These are divided into several subsystems, among which are Cache Manager, Configuration Manager, I/O Manager, Local Procedure Call (LPC), Memory Manager, Object Manager ... concept of a "service process," which is a user mode component somewhat analogous to a daemon in Unix-like operating systems ...

Evolution of MVS
... MVS JES3 gave users the opportunity to network together two or more data processing systems via shared disks and Channel-to-Channedl Adapters (CTCA's) ... This capability eventually became available to JES2 users as Multi-Access SPOOL (MAS) ... The main user interfaces to MVS are Job Control Language (JCL), which was originally designed for batch processing but from the 1970s onwards was also used to start and allocate resources to long-runnin ...

Famous quotes containing the words user and/or mode:
“A worker may be the hammer’s master, but the hammer still prevails. A tool knows exactly how it is meant to be handled, while the user of the tool can only have an approximate idea.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
“The mode of clearing and planting is to fell the trees, and burn once what will burn, then cut them up into suitable lengths, roll into heaps, and burn again; then, with a hoe, plant potatoes where you can come at the ground between the stumps and charred logs; for a first crop the ashes suffice for manure, and no hoeing being necessary the first year. In the fall, cut, roll, and burn again, and so on, till the land is cleared; and soon it is ready for grain, and to be laid down.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
