  2. IBM Z - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Z

    The typical ordering process of modern IBM Z mainframe looks like a buying of service [50] or looks like a leasing; [51] the mainframe is a program/hardware complex with rent for a system workload, and (in the most cases) additional system capabilities can be unlocked after additional payment.

  3. Hercules (emulator) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hercules_(emulator)

    Hercules is a computer emulator allowing software written for IBM mainframe computers (System/370, System/390, and zSeries/System z) and for plug compatible mainframes (such as Amdahl machines) to run on other types of computer hardware, notably on low-cost personal computers. Development started in 1999 by Roger Bowler, a mainframe systems ...

  4. IBM mainframe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_mainframe

    The primary operating systems in use on current IBM mainframes include z/OS (which followed MVS/ESA and OS/390 in the OS/360 lineage), z/VM (which followed VM/ESA and VM/XA SP in the CP-40 lineage), z/VSE (which is in the DOS/360 lineage), z/TPF (a successor of Transaction Processing Facility in the Airlines Control Program lineage), and Linux ...

  5. IBM Basic assembly language and successors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Basic_assembly...

    The application program interfaces of IBM's mainframe operating systems is defined as a set of assembly language "macro" instructions, that typically invoke Supervisor Call (SVC) [e.g., on z/OS] or Diagnose (DIAG) [on, e.g., z/VM] instructions to invoke operating system routines. It is possible to use operating system services from programs ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z_Application_Assist_Processor

    The IBM System z Application Assist Processor (zAAP), previously known as the zSeries Application Assist Processor, is a mainframe processor introduced by IBM in 2004. zAAP engines [1] are dedicated to running specific Java and XML workloads under z/OS, accelerating performance. zAAPs are available for zSeries 990 and 890 servers and later zSeries and zEnterprise models.

  7. Linux on IBM Z - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_on_IBM_Z

    Linux on IBM Z or Linux on zSystems is the collective term for the Linux operating system compiled to run on IBM mainframes, especially IBM Z / IBM zSystems and IBM LinuxONE servers. Similar terms which imply the same meaning are Linux/390 , Linux/390x, etc.

    A single-frame IBM z15 mainframe. Larger capacity models can have up to four total frames. This model has blue accents, as compared with the LinuxONE III model with orange highlights. A pair of IBM mainframes. On the left is the IBM z Systems z13. On the right is the IBM LinuxONE Rockhopper. An IBM System z9 mainframe

  9. z/Architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z/Architecture

    The IBM z13 is the last z Systems server to support running an operating system in ESA/390 architecture mode. [2] However, all 24-bit and 31-bit problem-state application programs originally written to run on the ESA/390 architecture will be unaffected by this change.
