Transaction Processing Facility (TPF) [2] is an IBM real-time operating system for mainframe computers descended from the IBM System/360 family, including zSeries and System z9. TPF delivers fast, high-volume, high-throughput transaction processing, handling large, continuous loads of essentially simple transactions across large, geographically ...
ALCS is a transaction processing monitor for the IBM System/360, System/370, System/390, and IBM Z mainframes. It is a variant of TPF specially designed to provide all the benefits of TPF (very high speed, high volume, and high availability in transaction processing) but with the advantages such as easier integration into the data center ...
Programmed Airline Reservations System (PARS) is an IBM proprietary large scale airline reservation application, a computer reservations system, executing under the control of IBM Airline Control Program (ACP) (and later its successor, Transaction Processing Facility (TPF)). Its international version was known as IPARS. [1]
SabreTalk is a discontinued dialect of PL/I for the S/360 IBM mainframes running the TPF platform. SabreTalk was developed jointly by American Airlines, Eastern Air Lines and IBM. SabreTalk is known as PL/TPF (Programming Language for TPF). [1] In 1973, Eastern Air Lines' computing division was selling the SabreTalk compiler for US$95,000. [2]
IBM Airline Control Program, or ACP, is a discontinued operating system developed by IBM beginning about 1965. In contrast to previous airline transaction processing systems , the most notable aspect of ACP is that it was designed to run on most models of the IBM System/360 mainframe computer family.
Those systems use PHYP (the POWER Hypervisor) to enable their LPAR functionalities since approximately 2000 in POWER4 systems. This support continues in IBM Power Systems. Multiple operating systems are compatible with LPARs, including z/OS, z/VM, z/VSE, and z/TPF on mainframes, AIX and IBM i on IBM Power Systems, and Linux on both.

In IBM mainframes, Workload Manager (WLM) is a base component of MVS/ESA mainframe operating system, and its successors up to and including z/OS. It controls the access to system resources for the work executing on z/OS based on administrator-defined goals. Workload Manager components also exist for other operating systems.
