The system permits the evolutionary ex- pansion of data processing applications from a batch-only to a teleprocessing environment. This manual contains a description of the functions concerned with IMS/360 in a data processing environment and of the system and its facilities provided; a discussion of data base and application program structure and details; and systems and terminal operations interfaces. An appendix includes application program examples in both COBOL and PL/1. An index is included to facilitate the use of the manual.
