IBM never defined Group 110 or Group 120.  As far as I'm aware, there were 
never any
submissions.

It did - for a short period - define Group 90 and Group 100;  these were 
rapidly replaced by
IMLC after someone in IBM hit someone else in IBM over the head with a shovel 
because both
groups were a tacit admission that another vendor had Top Gun.

110 and 120, as far as I remember, came from the febrile imaginations of CA and 
SAS in Europe
only.  I remember having a long discussion (two decades ago???) with one 
Rosemary Pyne at CA
about this.  One of Amdahl's better lawyers (Simon Awde) threatened to sue and 
they believed
him.
