Conclusion

The concurrent access capabilities that SAS/SHARE software adds to SAS give developers opportunities to create applications that allow their users to have up-to-date data and to be more productive.
Such applications use SAS in new ways. This paper has discussed areas to be aware of and ways to trade usage of one resource for another. This information enables developers of applications that take advantage of concurrently accessed data to write those applications to use the available computer resources in the most efficient ways possible.
