# nOS-V model
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The nOS-V runtime is composed of tasks that can be scheduled to run in
 | 
						|
threads. Tasks can be paused and resumed, leaving the CPUs free to
 | 
						|
execute other tasks. The nOS-V model tracks the state of each task as
 | 
						|
well as the state of the runtime internal state.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Task type colors
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
In the Paraver timeline, the color assigned to each nOS-V task type is
 | 
						|
computed from the task type label using a hash function; the task type
 | 
						|
id doesn't affect in any way how the color gets assigned. This method
 | 
						|
provides two desirable properties:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Invariant type colors over time: the order in which task types are
 | 
						|
  created doesn't affect their color.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Deterministic colors among threads: task types with the same label end
 | 
						|
  up mapped to the same color, even if they are from different threads
 | 
						|
  located in different nodes.
 | 
						|
 |
