Abstract
Computer networks are the outcome of the combination of computer and data communications technologies. Part I of this thesis presents the background of each one of these technologies and exposes analytically the principles of computer networking in particular. In Part II, a preliminary design is developed for the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) time sharing system. The study of Part II leads to a comparative analysis of four network architectures which are suitable for satisfying the needs of the NPS. Those architectures are compared in view of the desirable attributes of accessibility, evolvability , modularity, reliability and eas of operation. The communications requirements are derived and technologies for implementation of the communications links are recommended.
