Chapter 2  IPC Using Job Control Words and Other Variables 

Processes belonging to the same job or session can communicate with each
other through session-level variables.  Job Control Words (JCWs) are a
subset of session variables.  All session variables, including JCWs,
reside in the session variable table.


NOTE Variables are used in the same way in both jobs and sessions. In this chapter, the term "session variable" is used to refer to both job-level and session-level variables.
