Did it call them 'green threads'? If not, the terminology itself probably doesn't come from there.

I do remember Tandem and/or Wang talking about green (transportable) threads who were okay to suspend/resume across processor units .. I wish I could find more info, but I really do recall the term being applicable way back when ..
The question has always been: who deals out the work, the OS or the App? and as we can see, the question will continue to be asked, and un-answered, probably ad infinitum ..
