         The controller cannot manage the receipt of instructions
         and data from    transmission of data to the I/O Channel
         together with the receip of data from or transmission
         of data to the disc. Since the time t…0f…CONTR…0e… is of the
         same order as the transfer time on the I/O Channel
         (refer section 4.4) we may, however, assume this constraint
         to be negligible.

         For calculationof seek time it is assumed that the
         d̲a̲t̲a̲ are uniformly distributed, i.e. the probability
         of the data being located on a certain track is the
         probability of the head having to move from that track
         to any other track and equal to 1/N where N is the
         nmber of tracks per head.

         From J. Martin, Design of Real Time Computer System,
         Chapter 28, page 441 the mean number of tracks to be
         traversed and the variance are found as

         X = (N…0e…2…0f… - 1)/3N  N/3

         6…0f…x…0e……0e…2…0f… = (N…0e…4…0f… + N…0e…2…0f… - 2) / 18N…0e…2…0f…   N…0e…2…0f…/18
