IBM IMS / DB2 / CICS Access Request

[A J Annala]

I would like to find a site (near downtown Los Angeles or accessible using
tn3270 [a 3270 terminal emulator running w/ tcp/ip transport] via internet)
where I could be allowed to learn as much as possible about using MVS, TSO,
ISPF, IMS, DB2, and CICS to develop efficient integrated applications to be
used for implementing decision support systems for executives and operational
personnel. I have MVS, TSO, ISPF and DB2 available for my use on USC's 3090.
But we no longer own IMS or CICS. I would really appreciate access to these
systems on any academic or commercial system at any time of day or night and
under any restrictions necessary to keep your system administrators happy.

I can't pay for such access on a student budget. But I could possibly make
some consulting support available to your organization in exchange for such
access. I could exchange expertise (1973-present) in the following areas:

Business Applications
Decision Support Systems
Data Base Management Systems
Data Communications & System Security
Capacity Planning & Performance Management
Software Installation & System Administration
Design, Fabrication & Debugging of Custom Hardware Interfaces
Operating System Software & Device Driver Development
Systems Analysis, Design & Implementation
Software Testing & Quality Assurance
Graphics & Image Processing
Technology Assessment
