Abstract
Database and data communication software systems extend a computer´s operational environment to reduce programming effort and provide a standardized face for production operations. Developed in the mid-1960s, Information Management System/360 began as a joint project to enable Rockwell Space Division´s transition to System/360 computers. This project resulted in one of the first of this class of systems and one of the most successful.
