This paper describes an experimental "distributed" programming system which makes it possible to create multi-computer programs and to run them on computers connected by the ARPA computer network (ARPANET). The programming system, which is called McROSS (for Multi-Computer Route Oriented Simulation System), is an extension of a single-computer simulation system for modelling air traffic situations developed by Bolt, Beranek and Newman, Inc. (BBN) as a tool for air traffic control research. The McROSS system provides two basic capabilities. One is the ability to program air traffic simulations composed of a number of "parts" which run in geographically separated computers, the distributed parts forming the nodes of a "simulator network." The second is the ability of such a simulator network to permit programs running at arbitrary sites in the ARPANET to "attach" to particular nodes in it for the purpose of remotely monitoring or controlling the node's operation.
