Abstract
In a JCL analyzing apparatus for a job having a plurality of job steps, an application method of a data set is inspected to select the data set applicable to a pipe data set in view of generating a job step matrix. Utilizing information about the job step matrix for the continuous job step groups using the applicable data set, the job step groups are checked to determine whether they are parallel-executable. If the job steps groups are all parallel-executable, a data set can be applicable to the pipe data set. If the job step groups overlap, these groups are summarized, when possible, utilizing the information about the job step matrix to decide the parallel-executable job step groups.
