An air data computer (ADC) is a avionics component that assimilates the inputs from an aircraft's external and system sensors and returns a series of calculated results critical to the control of the aircraft. In one compact package, the air data computer performs what a bank of individual instruments were once required to do. Almost all the flight-related information displayed in newer commercial aircraft fitted with glass cockpits is compiled by an air data computer.
Customer Information Control System (CICSÂ®) is a family of mixed language application servers that provide online transaction management and connectivity for applications on IBM Mainframe systems under z/OS and z/VSE. CICS is middleware designed to support rapid, high-volume online transaction processing. A CICS transaction is a unit of processing initiated by a single request that may affect one or more objects. This processing is usually interactive (screen-oriented), but background transactions are possible.
