TCP. See terminal control process (TCP).
terminal control process (TCP). A process used for terminal management and transaction 
control, provided by Tandem as part of the Pathway/TS product. A TCP is a 
multithreaded process that interprets compiled SCREEN COBOL requester programs 
(screen programs) in the user’s application, executing the appropriate program 
instructions for each I/O device or process the TCP is configured to handle. The TCP 
coordinates communication between screen programs and their I/O devices or processes 
and, with the help of the PATHMON process, establishes links between screen programs 
and server processes. See also requester and SCREEN COBOL.
TLOGMGR. See SNAX/APN logon manager.
Virtual Telecommunications Access Method (VTAM). A set of programs that maintain 
control of the communication between terminals and application programs running 
under DOS/VS, OS/VSI, and OS/VS2 operating systems.
