ng architecture, its relative simplicity for developing terminalbased realtime transaction applications, and many opensource customer contributions, including both debugging and feature enhancement. ? An earlier, single thread transaction processing system, IBM MTCS, existed prior to CICS and an 39。MTCSCICS bridge39。, a type of middleware, was developed to allow these transactions to execute under CICS with no change to the original application programs. ? Each unique CICS Task or transaction was allocated its own dynamic memory at startup and subsequent requests for additional memory were handled by a call to the Storage Control program (part of the CICS nucleus or kernel), which is analogous to an operating system. ? Because application programs could be shared by many concurrent threads, the use of static variables embedded within a prog
