  • Abstract
    A store and forward message switching system, made up of duplexed 16-bit computers, fixed head discs (FHDs), moving head discs (MHDs), and multiline controllers (MLCs) is described. The paper discusses the area of application for a system of this type, and the equipment configuration and operation of the subject system. The paper concludes with a discussion of the redundancyswitchover aspects of the system and the system size.
