Abstract

With the recent advances in personal computer technology, time-sharing of a processor is no longer a necessity; each user can have his own machine. It is valuable, however, to share resources among the individual machines. This paper discusses a system structure for interactive computing in which personal computers are connected by a local-area network for the purpose of resource sharing, and describes an experimental prototype that is being implemented using the IBM Personal Computer.
