 | This article relies largely or entirely on a single source. (July 2025) |
Transaction Processing Management System (TPMS)[1] is an online transaction processing superstructure software from ICL (now Fujitsu Services) that runs on their VME mainframe computers. The first versions were released in the mid-1970s and were sold worldwide.
Structure
[edit]The service runs in at least two Virtual Machines (VMs)
- a Control VM (CVM), responsible for connecting, disconnecting terminals and routing messages
- one or more Application VMs (AVMs), responsible for all application processing - receiving input messages and returning output messages.
