The goal of the contest was to provide students with the opportunity to experience working with mainframes. [3] The contest was created in part to increase the number of mainframe skilled individuals in the computing workforce.
IBM announced the System/360 (S/360) line of mainframes in April 1964. [4] The System/360 was a single series of compatible models for both commercial and scientific use. The number " 360 " suggested a "360 degree ," or "all-around" computer system.
An IBM System z9 mainframe. A mainframe computer, informally called a mainframe or big iron, [1] is a computer used primarily by large organizations for critical applications like bulk data processing for tasks such as censuses, industry and consumer statistics, enterprise resource planning, and large-scale transaction processing.
IBM next-gen mainframe will be powered by the Telum II processor. Each chip features eight CPU cores, a large pool of fast cache memory, and a built-in AI accelerator meant for inferencing workloads.
The original platforms were the GE 235 computer and GE DATANET-30 message switching computer: later the product was ported to IBM mainframes and to DEC and ICL hardware. The IBM-ported version runs on IBM mainframe systems (System/360, System/370, System/390, zSeries, System z9). In the mid-1980s, it was claimed that some 2,500 IDMS licenses ...
International Business Machines (IBM) used to dominate the computer industry -- especially in the 1960s when mainframe computers were the only game in town. During the 1970s, that dominance gave ...
A pair of IBM mainframes. On the left is the IBM z13 (while the naming was changed, the z13 line had a zSystems label on doors). On the right is the IBM LinuxONE Rockhopper. IBM Z [1] is a family name used by IBM for all of its z/Architecture mainframe computers.
The Job Entry Subsystem (JES) is a component of IBM's MVS (MVS/370 through z/OS) mainframe operating systems that is responsible for managing batch workloads. In modern times, there are two distinct implementations of the Job Entry System called JES2 and JES3. They are designed to provide efficient execution of batch jobs.
