SHARE in Boston
The agenda for SHARE in Boston (August 21 - 26) has been set. A total of 1114 sessions have been scheduled, of which 230 are technical sessions in the MVS Program. As with every SHARE, there's pervasive emphasis on what's coming well as lots of advice on how to make the most of what you already have in house. This meeting is a special one for us: the official commemoration of SHARE's Golden Anniversary, marking 50 full years since the first meeting in Santa Monica, CA in August of 1955. A number of events are planned to celebrate our five decades of success as the world's first association of computer professionals. SHARE offers each attendee more than a solid week's worth of professional education, meaning plenty to do and learn for as many employees as your company can be induced to send. Tracks in the MVS Program include - Feature and function in z/OS 1.6 and 1.7 - Workload Manager - ISPF - IBM's new DS8000 - All about WebSphere - FICON - Assembler Bootcamp - Channel programming - IBM z990 and z890 - Introduction to DFSMS - Advanced DFSMSrmm - VSAM (basics, advanced, RLS) - ICF Catalogs Visit http://www.share.org/events/Boston for information on conference registration, housing, and agenda details. . . .
