Abstract

A general purpose store-and-forward data communication network is under development at NPL. The background to this work is described in companion papers(1)(2) which also detail the hardware environment in which the software of the central message switching computer (MSC) operates. A user of this system sees it as a star-connected network by means of which his terminal may exchange data with any other terminal via the MSC. Because this centre is stored-program controlled, it is possible to offer the user other communications-oriented facilities in addition to the basic data transmission function. The MSC may be described as a multi-access computer controlled by a timesharing operating system. Section 2 gives a description of the way in which terminals use the network, illustrating the main principles of operation of the system as a whole and outlining the features provided by software. Section 3 is a description of the operating system of the MSC.
一个数据通信网络软件组织的局部区域模型
一个通用的存储转发数据通信网络正在国家物理实验室开发中。本工作的背景在配套论文(1)(2)中进行了描述,其中还详细介绍了中央消息交换计算机(MSC)软件运行的硬件环境。该系统的用户将其视为星形连接网络,通过该网络,他的终端可以通过MSC与任何其他终端交换数据。由于这个中心是存储程序控制的,除了基本的数据传输功能外,还可以向用户提供其他面向通信的设施。MSC可以被描述为由分时操作系统控制的多访问计算机。第2节描述了终端使用网络的方式,说明了整个系统的主要操作原则,并概述了软件提供的功能。第3节是对MSC操作系统的描述。
