Java (tm) is the hottest language around, but it's been limited
  primarily to IP networks.  With a package recently released on
  alphaWorks (http://www.alphaworks.ibm.com), applets can be downloaded
  natively over LU6.2 networks, and can use the SNA Common Programming
  Interface - Communications (CPI-C).  Using CPI-C, applets can
  interface with existing LU6.2 servers or with new servers also
  written in Java.  In either case, client cost-of-ownership is reduced
  because application software doesn't have to be installed or
  maintained on the client.

  The package contains a Java-callable CPI-C API with CPI-C's most
  widely used calls.  CPI-C programmers writing in Java use these calls
  much as they would use the C calls.  Enterprise programmers can now
  leverage their CPI-C programming skill -- and installed LU6.2 network
  -- and still use the Internet's top language.
