Preface
The IBM System/38 employs both advanced tech-
nology and many new data processing concepts.
While the laboratory in Rochester, Minnesota, had
primary responsibility for design and development,
IBM people in laboratories in Boeblingen, Germany,
Burlington, Vermont, and East Fishkill, New York,
made important contributions.
Our mutual objective was to produce a system that
would be both accessible and extendable, and at the
same time offer efficient conversion facilities.
Function menus, help keys, multilayer messages, and
a system-wide control language are essential elements
of System/38, along with a flexible "user authoriza-
tion" scheme for system integrity and security. We
chose to avoid traditional hardware-dependent
addressing and storage management and instead to
readily accommodate new technologies and storage
organizations through a high-level machine archi-
tecture that not only frees the user from earlier
restrictions but also supports a new kind of data
base facility.
Finally, because System/38 is viewed as a growth
path from present systems, especially the IBM
System/3, we developed conversion techniques rather
than an emulator to give these users an opportunity The papers in this volume are not intended to replace IBM
