ABSTRACT:
A multiprocessor system automatically responding to a request for executing a new program to establish an extended process that spans a plurality of processors each having resources required for the execution of the new program. Initially, the extended process comprises an user process that is requesting the execution of the new program. Stub processes are created as required to gain access to the object code file of the new program, to allocate a processor to execute the new program, and to initialize the allocated processor for execution for the new program.
