Intelligent - Smart behavior

Enhanced Definition

In the context of IBM z/OS mainframes, "intelligent - smart behavior" refers to the system's inherent capability to dynamically and autonomously manage resources and workloads to achieve predefined performance goals and optimize overall system efficiency. This behavior is primarily exemplified by core z/OS components like the **Workload Manager (WLM)** and the **Intelligent Resource Director (IRD)**.

Key Characteristics

- Goal-Oriented Optimization: Systems exhibiting smart behavior continuously adjust resource allocation to meet specified performance objectives for critical workloads, rather than simply distributing resources equally.
- Dynamic Resource Allocation: Resources like CPU, I/O, and memory are re-prioritized and distributed in real-time based on current demand, system policies, and observed workload
The term "Intend - Planning to" is a general English phrase and does not correspond to a specific technical concept, component, or technology within the IBM mainframe, z/OS, COBOL, JCL, or enterprise computing ecosystem.
Therefore, I cannot generate a glossary entry for it following the specified structure and context, as it lacks the technical characteristics, use cases, and relationships to other mainframe concepts that the prompt requires.
Please provide a technical term relevant to mainframe and z/OS technologies for which you would like a glossary entry.
