This paper will explore some aspects of the Michigan Terminal System (MTS) developed at the University of Michigan. MTS is the operating system used on the IBM 360/67 at the University of Michigan Computing Center, as well as at several other installations. It supports a large variety of uses ranging from very small student-type jobs to large jobs requiring several million bytes of storage and hours of processor time. Currently at the University of Michigan there are about 13,000 users running as many as 86,000 jobs per month.
