Revised–Rates for Fiscal Year 2002

The rates published in issue 220 of Interface (September 5, 2001) contained incorrect values. This list of rates shows the revisions in bold italics. The rates for CIT services for fiscal year 2002 became effective October 1, 2001. The overall charges to users in FY02 will be comparable to those in FY01. Changes in rates (e.g., increases, decreases) from FY01–as well as new charges–are noted to the right of the FY02 rate.

The charges for CPU time shown below are based on a previous, slower processor model (9672 Generation 3) Since the current Generation 5 processors are twice as fast as the older ones (i.e., provide twice as much processing per second), the processing time shown on job output should be multiplied by two before applying the CPU time rate. The $ figure on output is the approximate charge.

SOUTH SYSTEM (OS/390) $ FY 2002 Rate Change
Processing
WYLBUR editing (per 9672G3 CPU second) 1 $ .33  
TSO CPU time (per 9672G3 CPU second)1 $ .30  
Batch
Cost = .64 * C * (.0002 * R + 1) + .0000315 * I + T
Discounted charge = .32* C * (.0002 * R + 1) + .00001575 * I + T
C = CPU time in Generation 3 CPU seconds (9672G3)
R = region used up to 1536K
I = I/O used
T = number of assigned tapes and special tapes mounted

Minimum charge (per batch job) $ .25
