from above:
My understanding is that PCP metamorphosed into CMS in the VM world,
almost intact.
... snip ...
CMS morphed from CTSS and had little or nothing to do with PCP
... other than CMS had some os/360 svc simulation for running various
os/360 applications. CMS originally stood for the cambridge monitor
system ... misc. posts mentioning the cambridge science center

In the morph from cp67 to vm370, they changed CMS to "conversational"
monitor system.
Note, somebody from Union Carbide did do a "online/os" using a
PCP-gened os/360 and had written an interactive monitor that
took CMS-like commands from the (virtual) operators console
(sort of super TSO but worked off the virtual operator's console).
Later, he was one of the people that formed IDC (a cp67 time-sharing
service bureau in the late 60s). misc. past posts mentioning various
time-sharing service bureaus
