* Attached Support Processor, one of the two early IBM System / 360 programs that replaces the native SPOOL facilities of OS / 360 ; the other was Houston Automatic Spooling Priority ( HASP ).

Originally released for the IBM 6150 RISC workstation, AIX now supports or has supported a wide variety of hardware platforms, including the IBM RS / 6000 series and later IBM POWER and PowerPC-based systems, IBM System i, System / 370 mainframes, PS / 2 personal computers, and the Apple Network Server.

AIX Version 1, introduced in 1986 for the IBM 6150 RT workstation, was based on UNIX System V Releases 1 and 2.

Among other variants, IBM later produced AIX Version 3 ( also known as AIX / 6000 ), based on System V Release 3, for their IBM POWER-based RS / 6000 platform.

Since 1990, AIX has served as the primary operating system for the RS / 6000 series ( later renamed IBM eServer pSeries, then IBM System p, and now IBM Power Systems ).

In 2003, the SCO Group alleged that ( among other infractions ) IBM had misappropriated licensed source code from UNIX System V Release 4 for incorporation into AIX ; SCO subsequently withdrew IBM's license to develop and distribute AIX.

The original AIX ( sometimes called AIX / RT ) was developed for the IBM 6150 RT workstation by IBM in conjunction with Interactive Systems Corporation, who had previously ported UNIX System III to the IBM PC for IBM as PC / IX.

AIX / 370 was released in 1990 with functional equivalence to System V Release 2 and 4. 3BSD as well as IBM enhancements.

* Auxiliary Storage Pool, a group of disk drives in the IBM i ( aka OS / 400 ) operating system

It is currently supported on IBM Power Systems alongside IBM i and Linux.

The first highly ( or tightly ) pipelined x86 implementations, the 486 designs from Intel, AMD, Cyrix, and IBM, supported every instruction that their predecessors did, but achieved maximum efficiency only on a fairly simple x86 subset that was only a little more than a typical RISC instruction set ( i. e. without typical RISC load-store limitations ).

This decline ( in aerobic capacity ) is most likely a consequence of the sedentary lifestyle that is often associated with the symptoms of IBM ( i. e. progressive muscle weakness, decreased mobility, and increased level of fatigue ).

* IBM RPG, a native programming language for IBM's System i servers

However, some older operating systems ( such as OS / VS1 and OS / VS2 SVS ) and even modern ones ( such as IBM i ) are single address space operating systems that run all processes in a single address space composed of virtualized memory.

IBM System i 570 server ( As of 2006 )

The IBM System i is IBM's previous generation of midrange computer systems for IBM i users, and was subsequently replaced by the IBM Power Systems in April 2008.

The unified product line is called IBM Power Systems and features support for the IBM i ( previously known as i5 / OS or OS / 400 ), AIX and GNU / Linux operating systems.

In 2006, it was again rebranded as the IBM System i. In 2008, almost 20 years after being introduced, the product line was discontinued and replaced by the IBM Power Systems line.

The IBM System i platform extended the System / 38 architecture of an object-based system with an integrated DB2 relational database.

One feature that has contributed to the longevity of the IBM System i platform is its high-level instruction set ( called TIMI for " Technology Independent Machine Interface " by IBM ), which allows application programs to take advantage of advances in hardware and software without recompilation.

DS had the distinction of being built on top of SNA, and thereby being fully compatible with DS on the IBM midrange AS / 400 and mainframe systems.

A well-known class of IBM PC keyboards is the Model M. Introduced in 1985 and manufactured by IBM, Lexmark and Unicomp, the vast majority of Model M keyboards feature a buckling spring key design and many have fully swappable keycaps.

IBM SPSS is now fully integrated into the IBM Corporation, and is one of the brands under IBM Software Group's Business Analytics Portfolio, together with IBM Cognos.

IBM was able to create this light, fully featured machine by using lightweight but strong carbon fiber composite plastics.

The latest release is now referred to as IBM i 7. 1 and fully supports the RPG IV language, as well as many others.

As of 22 January 2008, the corporation is fully operated by SAP ; this is seen as part of a growing consolidation trend in the business software industry, with Oracle acquiring Hyperion in 2007 and IBM acquiring Cognos in 2008.

DS had the distinction of being built on top of SNA, and thereby being fully compatible with DS on the IBM midrange AS / 400 and mainframe systems.

** PC CONTACT ( 1984 ), a fully integrated, single-step communications facility that interactively linked an IBM mainframe computer with the user's IBM personal computer.

With permission from IBM, the first cover CD carried a fully functional copy of OS / 2 Warp 4.

* Pidgin ( formerly Gaim ): supports ICQ, Yahoo !, AIM, Gtalk, MSN, IRC, XMPP, Gadu-Gadu, SILC, Meanwhile ( IBM Lotus Sametime ) and others ;

IBM released z / VSE Version 4 in 2007. z / VSE Version 4 requires 64-bit z / Architecture hardware and supports 64-bit real mode addressing.

IBM supports z / OS release coexistence and fallback on an " N + 2 " basis.

It supports security, communications, and web-based applications which can be executed inside the optional IBM WebSphere Application Server or as PHP / MySQL applications inside a native port of the Apache web server.

The IBM System i also supports common client – server systems such as ODBC and JDBC for accessing its database from client software such as Java, Microsoft. NET languages and others.

The Informix server supports the object-relational model, which has permitted IBM to offer extensions that support data types that are not a part of the SQL standard.

The IBM Informix family also includes a client side development environment, the Client-SDK, which supports a number of different environments including. net for Windows developers and a variety of protocols for Unix and Linux environments.

FreeDOS supports vintage hardware IBM PCs as well as modern ones, in addition to embedded computers.

Today, IBM's offices at 1 Rogers St supports mobile employees, Watson Research Center on User interface, and IBM DataPower.

MTS supports the IBM Vector Facility, available as an option on the IBM 3090 and ES / 9000 systems.

IPA monafont family supports following code pages: 1252 ( Latin 1 ), 1251 ( Cyrillic ), 932 ( JIS / Japan ), 950 ( Big-5 ), Macintosh Character Set ( US Roman ), Windows OEM Character Set, 866 ( MS-DOS Russian ), 865 ( MS-DOS Nordic ), 863 ( MS-DOS Canadian French ), 861 ( MS-DOS Icelandic ), 860 ( MS-DOS Portuguese ), 855 ( IBM Cyrillic ; primary Russian ), 437 ( US ).

In addition to these types, some large multi-line companies ( such as HP and IBM ), use ASP concepts as a particular business model that supports some specific customers.

The company sells, installs, and supports products from Citrix, VMware, Apple, Cisco, HP, Microsoft, Lenovo, IBM and others.

DJGPP ( DJ's GNU Programming Platform ) is a development suite for 386-based IBM PC compatibles which supports DOS-compatible operating systems.

For example, IMS supports the Java programming language, JDBC, XML, and, since late 2005, Web services ( though installing the JDBC driver may require licensing additional software from IBM ).

On IBM System z servers, CICS easily supports thousands of transactions per second, making it a mainstay of enterprise computing.

* IBM Lotus Forms supports development and deployment of XForms-based pure XML forms.

The Pegasos I supports the IBM 750CXe CPU ( G3 ), has 100 Mbit / s Ethernet onboard and uses PC133 SDRAM.
