Scheduling strategies are evolved to solve problems of selection in operating systems. Such strategies frequently undergo evolution in time as details of the specification are changed or, more frequently, as inadequacies in them are shown up by use in a heavily loaded system. This paper describes a number of scheduling strategies used in the TITAN system, and their development to meet changing circumstances or to overcome inadequacies.
