Abstract

Access to the variety of resources offered by computer networks is often complicated by the diversity of interfaces and protocols encountered. To overcome this diversity, a command-and-response language interface to a network of heterogeneous systems is proposed. A brief account of previous work in command languages and system interfaces motivates the study of a prototype of the proposed interface. The design, implementation, and lessons learned through the successful realization of the prototype are presented.<>
