Minimum Requirements for the CUS (Common User Subsystem) Workstation

Abstract

The purpose of this IDA Paper is to provide the JCS/J6W, JRIM office with a set of minimum requirements for workstations as defined by the WIS Common User Subsystem Contract A-specification in case other vendors are sought in the future. A mapping between these requirements and the WIS 3270 PC/XT workstation identified some potential problems that may affect the selection criteria of an alternative workstation. The document contains overviews of WIS and the WIS workstation, an analysis of the minimal workstation requirements, issues concerning interoperability and compatibility, and an analysis of how various system components impact workstation requirements.
