Synopsis

This book explores how SAA (Systems Applications Architecture) can be implemented in a UNIX environment to provide optimum results. In particular it shows how SAA can be integrated with UNIX released from AT&T, Sun Microsystems, DEC, Hewlett Packard, Unisys and IBM. It explains the criteria that need to be evaluated and considered regarding code sets, language implementations, hardware requirements, data models, operating systems, network configurations, and performance measurements before open systems can be attained. There is also an analysis of the components of SAA including common user access (CUA), common programming interface (CPI), communication support (CCS) and common applications and a study of recent UNIX features. The book also considers IBM's aims in initiating this project.
