Abstract
The operating system for the UNIVAC 1107 at Case Institute is reviewed. The system is of interest because of the low turnaround times achieved, the high throughput achieved and the lack of an operating staff. Turnaround times below 5 minutes and job volume above 75,000 per quarter year are reported.
