27. | ABCs of z/OS System Programming Volume 13 By: Paul Rogers; Juha Vainikainen Publisher: IBM Redbooks Publication Date: 12-JUN-2009 Insert Date: 25-JUN-2009 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: ABCs of z/OS System Programming Volume 13 A major goal of operating systems is to process jobs while
making the best use of system resources. Thus, one way of viewing
operating systems is as resource managers. Before job processing,
operating systems reserve input and output resources for jobs.
During job processing, operating systems manage resources such as
processors and storage. After job processing, operating systems
free all resources used by the completed jobs, making the resources
available to other jobs. This process is called resource
management.
There is more to the processing of jobs than the managing...
