This
publication
provides
Model
20
o'pera-
tors
with
the
information
required
to
(1)
build
a
tape-resident
system
from
IBM-
supplied
programs,
(~
maintain
this
system
by
means
of
IBM-supplied
programs
,(3)
execute
IBM-supplied
and
user-written
pro-
grams
under
control
of
the
tape-resident
system,
and
(~
execute
object
programs
under
control
of
the
card-resident
system.
A
tape-resident
system
is
used
to
con-
trol
the
compilation,
assembly,
and
execu-
tion
of
the
user's
problem
programs
and
the
execution
of
IBM-supplied
programs.
The
principal
features
and
advantages
of
a
tape-resident
system
are:
the
program
library
facility,
the
macro
library
facili-
ty,
batch
job
processing,
selective
phase
loading,
and
automatic
job-to-job
transition.
The
card-resident
system
provides
for
stacked-job
processing
with
automatic
job-
to-job
transition.
It
is
used
to
control
the
building
of
a
tape-resident
system
and
the
execution
of
object
programs
contained
in
punched
cards.
The
card-resident
system
offers
th0
advantage
that
all
tape
drives
available
can
be
used
by
the
object
program.

SUMMARY
OF
IBM-SUPPLIED
PROGRAMS
The
programmi
ng
suppo
rt
which
IBM
supplies
to
users
of
tape-resident
systems
comprises
the
Basic
Assembler
(tape
versions)
the
Control
programs
of
the
card-
resident
system
the
Control
programs
of
the
tape-
resident
system
the
Service
programs
for
the
tape-
resident
system
the
TPS
Report
Program
Generator
the
TPS
Assembler
program
the
TPS
Sort/Merge
program
the
TPS
Utility
programs
Input/Output
and
Basic
Monitor
macro
definitions.
A
number
of
IBM-supplied
programs
are
executed
under
control
of
the
card-resident
system,
others
under
control
of
the
tape-
resident
system,
and
some
can
be
executed
under
control
of
either
system.
Those
pro-
grams
that
are
executed
under
control
of
the
tape-resident
system
must
be
stored,
together
with
the
Basic
Monitor
program
and
the
Job
Control
program
of
the
tape-
resident
system,
on
a
tape
referred
to
as
the
system
tape.
The
tape
Basic
MQnitor
is
the
first
program
on
the
system
tape.
It
is
followed
by a
program
library,
which
contains
the
tape
Job
Control
program
and
all
other
programs
to
be
executed
under
control
of
the
tape-resident
system,
and
by
an
(optional)
macro
library,
which
contains
the
macro
definitions.
A
brief
description
of
the
functions
of
each
IBM-supplied
program
is
given
below.
The
tape
versions
of
the
Basic
Assembler
are
stand-alone
programs
used
to
assemble
source
programs
written
in
the
Basic
Assembler
language.
The
operating
proce-
dures
for
these
programs
are
described
in
the

The
Control
programs
of
the
card
and
tape-
resident
systems
are:
The

(IPL)
The
Basic

program
The
Job

program.
The
card-resident
IPL,
Basic
