AS/400: Lifting the Veil of Obscurity

Presented at The Fifth HOPE (2004), July 10, 2004, 5 p.m. (60 minutes)

The AS/400 system from IBM is a powerful system that is in widespread use. Despite that, it is difficult to find information on it or learn about it from any school. A general overview of its design and the architecture of the OS will be presented. This will then be tied into fundamental computing knowledge to show where "interesting" data can be found and where possible weaknesses are in the system.
