Program Product Program Description
Program Number 5736-CX3

The Information Management System/360 is an Operating
System/360 processing program designed to facilitate the
implementation of medium to large common data bases in
a multiapplication environment. This environment is
created to accommodate both online message processing
and conventional batch processing, either separately or
concurrently. 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.
