While [[Conversational Monitor System\|CMS]], the usual VM guest, already has OS simulation, it is not extensive enough to run some applications such as [[VTAM]]. Specifically, GCS provides [[Computer multitasking\|OS multitasking]] support. In order to be able to spread the load over several virtual machines, GCS also implements a notion of group where each group member virtual machine can interact with one another. To implement this, GCS uses several techniques:
