Abstract
This paper, together with its companions(1)(2) describes the experimental data communication network being implemented at the National Physical Laboratory. The purpose of the work is two-fold.
Firstly, it will act as a model of the 'local area' network assumed, but never analysed in detail, in the NPL proposal for a possible National Data Communication System(3)(4)(5).
Secondly, it will provide data communications between a wide variety of devices. These range from computers to teletypes and are spread over the 78 acres of the Laboratory site.
