  • Abstract
    This paper describes the simulation and comparison of two types of local-area network. One is a branching broadcasting system, based closely on the standard Ethernet, requiring contention-resolving hardware, and the second is the Cambridge digital communication ring, a point-to-point communication system using the empty-slot principle for deterministic multiplexing.
