The first thing that came to my mind was the term "Shelfware".  A valid
question to ask is whether software that you are paying license fees to use
is actually being used -- perhaps a rather unique view of utilization.
Further, you might ask how large the user community is compared to the cost
of the license.

Can anyone help me in understanding the rerm Utilization of Mainframe
Software Licensing ? Does it mean taking care of licensing cost as per the
MIPS / MSU or it involves something more than that...?
