Networking Communication Operating System (NCOS)

This paper presents an overall view of the project goals and present facilities of the Experimental Data Communication Network established in Warsaw, Gdansk, and Katowice, Poland, by the Institute of Communication in Warsaw, within the framework of its research program during the period 1974 to 1976. The experiment consists of linking different host computers, via nodal computers, using the packet switching technique. It is proposed to connect the Warsaw node of the above network to the IIASA Network, enabling several subscribers selected in Poland to link to the IIASA Network
