Abstract
This paper consists of printed notes given as the first lecture of a two-part special lecture course on efficient programming. Emphasis is laid on on efficient programming in relation to the hardware and operating system of the Perkin-Elmer 3220 computer, although the principles embodied are in general, universally applicable. The functioning of the operating system and its interaction with the hardware of the computer is explained in considerable detail, as this is felt a necessary prerequisite to understanding how the features of the operating system might be exploited to improve program execution speeds.
