Abstract

The worldwide trend in computers in the 1970's has been the movement from off-line to on-line systems and the growing integration of computing and communications. It is expected that 70 percent of all computers will be connected to terminals via communication facilities by 1980. This trend has stimulated new applications for integrated systems, generically termed data or computer communications systems, and has broadened the current user base for existing applications.
