The U.S. Government has honored CSI International for Twenty-Six Years of innovation

9 September 2021

     In 1995 CSI’s development group embarked upon creating TCP/IP for the VSE environment, with the idea of a solution designed specifically for VSE. Rather than approach this monumental task by using other designs and implementations, CSI developed TCP/IP using only the Standard RFC documents without reference to any other implementation. The result is a product used worldwide with unmatched performance, stability, and functionality. Today, TCP/IP for z/VSE is the most flexible comprehensive solution for the IBM z series platform, performing and delivering a more effective system over any IBM offering on any of IBM’s platforms.

     On August 31st, 2021, The United States Patent and Trademark Office recognized the value and significance of this innovative design with a U.S. Patent (US 11,108,671). The internal design for TCP/IP for z/VSE still stands alone in the world as a unique solution. Not only can CSI boast that they have achieved success on the z series platform, but no other TCP/IP implementation has used such a structure on any platform over the last twenty-six years. The challenges of creating a solution for the oldest operating system in the world, z/VSE, have driven CSI’s developers to break new ground and look for unimagined methods. We want to take a moment to congratulate CSI’s development staff’s achievements and add this significant accolade to their list of growing accomplishments. If not for the work of these innovative developers, VSE would have merely been a footnote rather than a robust corporate solution for the last twenty-five years.

Enthusiastically yours,
Barry Boyer
