Abstract:

Host computer networks which employ the pollselect line control discipline will be major subscribers of the AUTODIN II network. This paper provides a general overview of poll-select and contention disciplines, and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of each. Several approaches to reducing or eliminating polling overhead traffic on the AUTODIN II network are outlined. Author
