The on-line systems failed to meet their start deadline by hours and resulted in the loss of valuable trade and a tarnished reputation, despite the efforts of costly damage control instigated by customer relations. The cause of the problem was the addition of a new application, which had monopolized the hardware resources during the nightly batch run. Even now more money was being spent upgrading the CPUs and hard disk devices, so that the catastrophe wouldn't recur. The situation could describe any company, anywhere, any when, and any application. Blinkered management and ill-informed specialists still pontificate, that a programmer's time is their most expensive resource and that programs should be written to work, and not to work efficiently. This book dismantles these traditional ideas and demonstrates how highly efficient and maintainable COBOL Applications can be written, and includes many examples of SECTION and program optimizing as well as discourses into VSAM, JES2 JCL and online programming.

HTML Web pages and Cascading Style Sheets are introduced. Then the Javascript scripting language allows programming within a Web page, such as validating data from an HTML Form. Microsoft's Active Server Pages (ASP) allows Client-Server Internet interaction, and Active Data Objects (ADO) let you use a database on the Web Server from the Local Site. You are updated to the Microsoft .NET environment with ASP.NET and ADO.NET. Java Server Pages (JSP) introduces non-Microsoft Web Client-Server software that is multiplatform (Windows and Linux). JSP is equivalent to ASP, allowing you Client-Server interaction, including working with Windows databases such as SQL Server and Access 2003. Extended Modeling Language (XML) are the most current, and standardized, way of passing database data over the internet between different databases (such as SQL Server to Oracle). Modern databases, such as Access 2003, store their data in XML. Even mainframe users like XML! The book uses short, meaningful examples, which the Readers can readily adapt to their own problems and run. This is an intermediate guide to working with web pages with a scripting language, not an encyclopedia!
