  • Abstract
    Another opening, another magazine, another column, a chance to examine the hottest, newest technology in one of the fastest evolving fields — computer communications. In the future we´ll talk about media, from the lowly twisted pair to optical transmission; protocols, the necessary evil and why they are so troublesome; networks for distributed computing; smart AI networks; secure networks; can universal networks really be achieved?
