Chapter 2  Process Management Tasks 

This chapter explains how you can use MPE XL intrinsics to:

 *  Create a new process

 *  Activate a suspended process

 *  Suspend an executing process

 *  Delay a process from executing

 *  Request a process break

 *  Delete a process

 *  Interrogate a process

 *  Pass information to a process
 *  Reschedule a process

 *  Provide communication between processes

For complete descriptions of the intrinsics described in this chapter,
refer to the MPE XL Intrinsics Reference Manual (32650-90028).

This chapter describes how your program can call two kinds of process
management intrinsics:

 *  Intrinsics requiring only standard capabilities, (for example, IA,
    BA, SF)

 *  Intrinsics requiring PH capability in addition to standard
    capabilities
