Steven King, of IBM's Austin-based Operating Systems Solutions
division and manager of that division's Services unit, will speak on
how his unit's team supports OS/2 customers worldwide at the upcoming
WarpTech 2000 three-day OS/2 computer conference in Phoenix,
Arizona.

King and his team focus on IBM's worldwide e-business OS/2 support,
including the software resources, the programming enhancements and
the specialized support that these OS/2 customers require. Customers
rely on King for their installation, configuration, system tuning,
and client and server deployments.

IBM has quietly revamped its OS/2 operating system into a
super-powerful tool that runs high speed networks and controls large
servers with multi-processor motherboards.

"IBM has leveraged their initial OS/2 operating system onto newly
available hardware with a rewritten kernel and new file drivers,"
said Bill Schindler, a system software consultant and an officer for
the Phoenix OS/2 Society Inc., the corporation which is hosting
WarpTech 2000.

King will speak on how IBM continues to enhance OS/2 so that, in
addition to preserving customer investments in legacy OS/2
applications, it is the platform for future e-business deployments
and for the development of e-business applications.

"The key technologies associated with e-business are Java, XML, the
browser, internet protocols, and application serving," according to
King. His presentation at WarpTech will include IBM's added support
of these technologies on OS/2 plus the development on OS/2 of "new
e-business applications and solutions that exploit multi-threading,
distributed objects, transaction commit and checkpoint restart, and
directory/security services."

The session will also cover WorkSpace On-Demand and IBM Network
Client Manager e-business solutions.

King has managed portions of IBM's OS/2 development for years,
including LAN Server 4, Warp Connect, Warp Server, Warp Server SMP,
and Warp Server for e-business. The success of IBM's systems,
products and customer solutions which run on OS/2 indicates that his
management style and ability to produce profits for his division will
keep OS/2 as a strategic underlying platform for the next decade of
IBM customers.

WarpTech 2000 is a 3-day OS/2 technical conference taking place May
26-28 at a pristine 463-acre desert resort in the beautiful
Southwest. Come to Phoenix, Arizona USA for three full days of OS/2
-- the biggest OS/2 conference ever held.
