Somewhere in the SAS Enterprise Guide documentation we read how easy it was to create a SAS stored process write and test your code, add a simple %stpbegin and %stpend and let SAS Enterprise Guide take care of the rest. Presto, a new stored process ready to conquer the enterprise. Although that might work in the Hello World example, our first stored process project proved that applying the same...

SAS/Connect provides an easy and reliable method for connecting remote hosts and executing SAS commands on the remote environment. This paper explores the use of SAS/Connect in conjunction with the robust Java language. Various methods of integration with SAS/Connect will be reviewed, including dynamic program generation to create and run a web-based application, and the dynamic generation and ...

This paper deals with performance issues when migrating production jobs from Version 5 to Version 6 of the SAS® System under MVS. Due to the significant differences between the architectures of Version 6 and Version 5 of the SAS System, the user might experience performance degradation/improvement when migrating some jobs to Version 6 of the SAS System. Specific areas to consider are formats an...

Centrioles make up the centrosome and basal bodies in animals and as such play important roles in cell division, signalling and motility. They possess characteristic 9-fold radial symmetry strongly influenced by the protein SAS-6. SAS-6 is essential for canonical centriole assembly as it forms the central core of the organelle, which is then surrounded by microtubules. SAS-6 self-assembles into...

This paper presents an overview of backwards and forwards compatibility between Versions 6 and 7 of the SAS System and is intended to be used as a reference in determining what manner of access is allowed. Furthermore, this paper takes into account differences in compatibility between the Base SAS System and when products such as SAS/CONNECT and SAS/SHARE are used. SAS I/O Services The I/O Se...
