Abstract:

The Remote-Terminal Emulator is a minicomputer-based system which generates message traffic for use in testing and evaluating large-scale multi-terminal computer systems. This series of reports describes the two Design Verification Models that were developed on Data General NOVA 800 minicomputers. This volume revised to reflect expansions in emulator capability made since late 1973 describes the global data structures of the emulator and also defines the log tape format, scenario instruction types available, and the commands recognizable in real-time. Scenario instructions are used to construct scenarios which are the common denominator linking the real-time and non-real-time programs of the Remote-Terminal Emulator. Scenarios are programs which determine the specific actions to be taken by the emulator in real-time in emulating the behavior of terminals and operators and in controlling the run.
