Treffer: Cics transforms to fit the future.

International Business Machines Corp.'s long-lived online transaction processing system was originally known as Customer Information Control System, but is usually called Cics. IBM says there are more than 30 billion Cics transactions a day, and that over one trillion dollars is transferred via Cics. It provides a runtime environment within which business logic written as Enterprise Java Beans can interoperate with business logic written in Cobol, PL/I, C and C++. One can undertake IBM's Cics fundamentals course with a basic knowledge of data processing, but the road to mastery is through classroom sessions at£ 300-plus a day. Version 5.1 of IBM TXSeries for Multiplatforms, which includes both Cics and the Encina application server for AIX, HP-UX, Solaris cand Windows, was shipped in April this year. Rates are highest in the financial sector, where a Cics systems programmer could look for up to£ 38,000, and Cics consultants with several years' experience could be offered considerably more.
