Content Description

This is a basic-level course for z/TPF programming basics. The course covers basic concepts, process models, system characteristics, and supported programming languages.

The course contains 3 units:

Unit 1:  Understanding z/TPF: This unit introduces what the z/TPF system is, what it is capable of, and how programs, packages, and applications are organized in the z/TPF system. This unit also covers some basic concepts of the z/TPF system.

Unit 2:  Process Models: This unit provides an overview of the operating system 5-state process model used by the z/TPF system and the different processing models used by applications.

Unit 3:  Programming considerations: To understand the environment in which programs run on the z/TPF system, you need to understand a little bit about z/Architecture. This unit covers z/TPF system characteristics that are carried over from z/Architecture from the perspective of operating states, virtual memory, memory protection, and the interrupt mechanism. This unit also introduces the programming languages that the z/TPF system supports, as well as how programs written in different languages seamlessly integrate with each other.

Objectives

  • Understand some basic concepts of the z/TPF system
  • Describe different z/TPF process models
  • Understand the environment in which programs run on the z/TPF system
  • Learn how programs in different languages seamlessly integrate with each other on the z/TPF system
