It would be nice to have a clearer definition. Some documents from IBM make reference to a software component called the "workstation manager". For example, I'm looking at a diagram right now that describes how IBM's new Webfacing interface works. It shows an arrow pointing from a rectangle labeled "Host Application" to a rectangle labeled "Workstation Manager". I suspect that any application that uses the "Workstation Manager" is subject to the CPU limits enforced by CFINT. Here's a quote from the Webfacing article: "The converted host application will support both a 5250 and a Web interface. This dual support is enabled by a low-level switch in the SLIC layer of OS/400 architecture. If the application interface is a 5250 display, the data coming from the Workstation Manager is integrated into a 5250 data-stream in the format defined by the display file DDS. If a Web browser interface is being used, the data from the Workstation Manager is fed into a Java bean which fills the dataspaces in the JSP." Maybe Workstation Manager is a key to this puzzle.
