This vo1 e contains the papers presented at the NATO Advanced Study
Institute of New Advances in Distributed Computer Systems held
between 15th and 26th June, 1981 at the Chateau de Bonas, France.
The aim of the meeting was to promote an interchange of ideas
between experts in the inter1inked fie1ds of communications and
computers in order to determine the essential areas for future
deve1opment. Its programme was arranged to exp10re a number of
current topics inc1uding the pub1ic data-communication networks set
up by the PTTs or corresponding bodies in various countries,
1arge-sca1e non-pub1ic systems such as ARPANET and its 1atest
deve1opments, international systems such as the air1ines' SITA
network, the recent and very important deve10pments in loca1 area
networks and relevant deve10pments by universities and other higher
educationa1 bodies. The recent moves towards form- isation and the
1aying down of a theoretica1 basis to guide future deve10pments and
standards were discussed with particu1ar reference to the
International Standards Organisation "7-1ayer model for Open System
Interconnection" and the deve10pment of formal mathematica1 methods
for specifying and ana1ysing communication systems and their
protoco1s. Consideration was also given to the theoretica1
techniques, and their practica1 realisation, now becoming avai1ab1e
to ensure privacy and security of information transmitted over
digital communication systems. Fina11y the penetration of the
concepts of distributed processing into the domain of computer
architecture, giving such possibi1ities as array processors and
other non-von Neumann architectures formed the subject of severa1
of the sessions.
