z/OSMF Workflow Editor Lab - Try it out on your z/OSMF systemMarna Walle
This is a self-directed lab that you can use on your own z/OSMF V2.1 and higher system. All the samples are provided (in the Appendix) to create on your own system to use. Hints and tips from what Marna has discovered are shown.
This is the planning part of a two-part session for system programmers and their managers who are planning on upgrading to z/OS V2.5. In part one, the focus is on preparing your current system for upgrading to either release. The system requirements to run and how to prepare your system for the upgrade are discussed. Part two covers the only upgrade details for upgrading to z/OS V2.5 from either V2.3 or V2.4. It is strongly recommended that you attend both sessions for an upgrade picture for z/OS V2.5.
The general availability date for z/OS V2.5 was for September 30, 2021.
DB2 for z/OS - Starter's guide to memory monitoring and controlFlorence Dubois
DB2 for z/OS makes more and more use of REAL memory to improve performance and reduce cost. But if you don't carefully budget and monitor the use of REAL memory on your system, you could be putting your applications at risk. This presentation will go back to the basics and answer the most common questions about REAL memory management including: how does DB2 uses virtual and REAL memory? how to build a budget based on system settings and buffer pool sizes? how to size the LFAREA? what are the key performance indicators and how do I know I am running 'safely'? what can be done to protect the system?
Have you tried to install PTFs with z/OSMF yet/ It still uses SMP/E under the covers, but it has a slick interface that doesn't need to show you all the details you don't need to know.

Upgrade to IBM z/OS V2.5 technical actionsMarna Walle
Yes, "upgrade" is the new name for these traditional "migration" sessions! This is part one of a two-part session that will be of interest to System Programmers and their managers who are upgrading to z/OS V2.5 from either z/OS V2.3 or V2.4. It is strongly recommended that you review sessions for a complete upgrade picture.

A Parallel Sysplex is a cluster of IBM mainframes acting together as a single system image with z/OS that cooperate, using certain hardware and software products, to process work. Used for disaster recovery, Parallel Sysplex combines data sharing and parallel computing to allow a cluster of up to 32 mainframes to share a workload for high performance and high availability.Parallel Sysplex is analogous in concept to a UNIX cluster – allow the customer to operate multiple copies of the operating system as a single system. This allows systems to be added or removed as needed, while applications continue to run.
Geographically Dispersed Parallel Sysplex (GDPS) is an end to end application availability solution. It is the ultimate disaster recovery and continuous availability solution for a multi-site enterprise. GDPS disk replication technology enhances the resiliency and provides continues availability of data by masking disk outages.

JCL
Job Control Language (JCL) is a name for scripting languages used On IBM mainframe operating systems to instruct the system on how to run a batch job or start a subsystem.
JCL acts as an interface between application programming and MVS Operating system.
Jcl is used for compilation and execution of batch programs.
Apart from the above functionalities JCL can also be used for,
1. Controlling the jobs.
2. Create GDG’S.
3. Allocate PDS,PS file with IBM Utilities.
4. Create Procs.
5. Sort the files.

ACCOUNTING INFORMATION
It is a keyword parameter and codes it after JOB statement.
It is used for billing purpose, in real time when we submit any job it is going to take some CPU time. Based on the CPU time there will be some amount involved where this amount has to go will be decided by A/C information parameters.
Examples

Db2 for z/OS and FlashCopy - Practical use cases (June 2019 Edition)Florence Dubois
With the explosion of data volumes today, businesses are looking for ways to copy huge volumes of data very quickly – from seconds to minutes – with minimal disruption to the running of applications. In this presentation, you will hear about practical use cases for IBM FlashCopy technology in a Db2 for z/OS environment including non-disruptive data integrity checks, FlashCopy image copies allowing for instant restore, SHRLEVEL(CHANGE) consistent image copy backups, system-level backup and recovery. We will provide many hints and tips on how to set up your environment, share lessons learned from customer experience and address common pitfalls.
Best practices for DB2 for z/OS log based recoveryFlorence Dubois
The need to perform a DB2 log-based recovery of multiple objects is a very rare event, but statistically, it is more frequent than a true disaster recovery event (flood, fire, etc). Taking regular backups is necessary but far from sufficient for anything beyond minor application recovery. If not prepared, practiced and optimised, it can lead to extended application service downtimes – possibly many hours to several days. This presentation will provide many hints and tips on how to plan, design intelligently, stress test and optimise DB2 log-based recovery.
This presentation is about a newer function in z/OSMF, called the z/OS Management Services Catalog. If you want to create a service so you can execute it in a click - this is the spot!

Undo and redo is a very common but not trivial feature, requested in most types of modern web applications. An application may define complex data processing rules involving data from different stores, which is tricky to handle when undoing an operation. With the Robo tool, we'll show you how to accurately revert data to any previous state with a simple undo() call.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
