Abstract :
The authors detail the system architecture of a communications processor that uses an existing distributed message switching data communications network as the transport medium for the Arinc Transaction Terminal Service (ATTS) application. Salient features of a powerful communications controller board are described and the organization of the software is outlined to show how the hardware/operating system dependence is minimized to enhance software portability
