ABSTRACT:
A method and means for ensuring maximal occupancy of dual actuators movable over a cyclic multitracked DASD in transferring any percentage mix of short and long records over a set of queued referencing commands by the selective serial or concurrent dispatching of actuators to the same or different records solely as a function of the ascertained actuator availability, reference queue length, and the length of the referenced record.
