SAA stands for System Application Architecture, which is a collection of
software interfaces, protocols and conventions that provide the guidlines and
the framework for the development and execution of consistent application. 
Yes, SAA is created by IBM. The Graphical User Standard is just one of the four
element of SAA.  SAA contains:
 
	CUA - Common User Access - the graphical user standard. Microsoft ships it
		  with its Windows 3.x SDK.

	CPI - Common Programming Interface.

	CCS - Common Communications Support.

	Common Application. 

Currently there are about 16 publications in SAA library.

Hope above info helps.
