Sessions By Program & Project
Program/Project
Applications Systems
The purpose of the Applications Systems Program is to provide information, influence direction and consolidate feedback on the application level of computing. It is at this level that the traditional language systems and the new technology of the internet meet. It is a joining of the business processes of computing and the presentation of the completed product. The Projects of this Program function interactively with other Programs to produce business focused, technologically balanced solutions. It is the ultimate goal of this Program to assist our client community in maintaining currency, easing migration and influencing the future in the application tools arena.

DATA
The purpose of the Data Systems Program is to address the transaction processing, message flow, and data base management needs of Member installations and their attendees. The goals of the program are to increase the understanding, usage, and utility of IBM and vendor products, to assist IBM and vendors in the development of future products and the refinements of current products, and to foster discussion and formulation of positions on issues of strategic and tactical concern. Activities include program discussions, scheduling of program-level sessions where appropriate, and the coordination of scheduling for the projects within the program and within SHARE.

Integrating Services and Technologies
The Integrating Services and Technologies Program (ISnT) provides a technical program that encompasses the most essential disciplines of Systems Management and other tools and techniques to improve the effectiveness of professionals in SHARE's Member organizations who are accountable for Information Technology Management. We provide a forum to address the issues of managing existing and emerging technologies in the complex heterogeneous and distributed environments that are required for today's multi-tiered Enterprise business systems. The primary goal of the Integrating Services and Technologies Program is to provide a comprehensive technical program that has technical training, provides insights into new technology directions, and presents thought provoking discussions on issues that are relevant to the Technical Staff, their Managers and Systems Architects. This program also supports SHARE's mission of 'Industry Influence' by making a coherent and unified presentation of user needs to IBM, its business partners and other vendors. Business data processing environments today span Mainframes to Personal Computers and require a multitude of networking technologies to distribute processing and data across their complexity. This program tries to be as diverse as the products and services that these different platforms depend upon for effectiveness in your enterprise. The Projects included in the Integrating Systems and Technologies Program (ISnT) are: Asso-End Systems Mangement(E2E) Interdisciplinary Technologies(ITEC) Professional Development(PDEV) Security and Audit (SEC) Storage(STOR) If you are interested in becoming active in any of the Projects in ISnT, please contac

Linux & VM
The mission of the Linux & VM Program reflects that of SHARE: to provide information and education to SHARE attendees who are users of Linux and VM technologies; to influence the direction of development in the realms of Linux and VM; to provide an environment that fosters the interchange of ideas among the participants. The Linux & VM Program comprises two Projects: The Linux Project (LINX) focuses on the Linux operating system and its uses on all platforms The VM Project (VM) focuses on all things related to the z/VM operating system and related software The projects also coordinate sessions concerned with Linux running on the mainframe ('under VM'). This last topic is addressed by sessions that focus on concepts including server consolidation, virtual LANs, and the total cost of ownership of (virtual) Linux servers.

MVS
The MVS Program is concerned with the installation, maintenance, management, integration, and exploitation of z/OS systems and System z hardware. It is comprised of eight projects: Enterprise-wide Capacity Planning and Performance Management (EWCP), ISPF, JES2, JES3, MVS SCP (MVSE), MVS Open and Distributed (MVSO), MVS Storage Management (MVSS), and zNextGen. Although the System z platform is a mature technology, it remains vibrant and continues to evolve to meet changing customer requirements. The MVS Program presents technical sessions on a variety of topics to meet the needs of SHARE member installations old and new, large and small. Influencing IBM is also a key responsibility of the MVS Program. Both strategic and tactical issues are addressed, primarily through Requirements, White Papers, and dialog with IBM developers and other representatives. All of the officers within the MVS Program are volunteers, donating their time and energy to make the organization a success. We need YOU to help make SHARE an even better and more valuable experience! If you'd like to contribute, please attend a Sunday working session or Monday opening session for any of the projects listed below.

Networking
The Networking Program is SHARE's focus for telecommunications hardware, software, communications architectures, programming interfaces and interface standards to provide a framework for complete connectivity. The program provides technical direction and network management techniques to assist members in developing effective and efficient networks. It promotes mutual support for SHARE members, enhanced by close-working relationships with IBM and other vendors.�The program sessions provide ongoing dialogues among attendees, the program staff, other vendors, and IBM. The program promotes quality work products such as requirement statements, white papers, and session reports for SHARE Proceedings.� The Networking Program participates as a member of the SHARE team dealing with telecommunications issues that span SHARE's program boundaries. Areas include: Sysplex Network Technology APPN/HPR /Enterprise Extender architectures TCP/IP architectures Workstation-to-host connectivity Communications Server for Linux on zSeries Enterprise Network Design and implementation Interconnection of IBM and non-IBM systems Network Management WEB and eBusiness Solutions Storage Area Networking Concepts The Networking Program works to promote technical excellence by encouraging members to give user experience sessions. The project mascot is the spider as it provides connectivity with its�web. The project is currently open a get involved with the program's projects.
