Title
Specifying distributed CICS in Z: Accessing local and remote resources
Abstract
AbstractAbstractThe CICS/ESA Intercommunication Guide is a source of information about distributed CICS systems. Among other things, it describes how an application program running on one system can issue a command that will be shipped to a remote system. A resource manager located at the remote system will execute the command and ship back a response.This paper presents a formal specification of the above interaction between application programs and resource managers. Some familiarity with the Z specification language is assumed. The structure of the specification illustrates how it is possible to address separately, and later combine, different aspects of a complex system, including its distributed nature.
