Description
Summary:TR-73-183(*data transmission systems, *data processing), design, information theory, systems engineering, cost effectiveness, simulation, pulse communications, digital systemspulse communication, ibm 360/65 computers, ibm 360/50 computers, telecommunication, digital communication systemsThe report covers investigation of typical data communications loadings and facility utilizations developed in systems employing the IBM-360/50 class of computers with hardwired communications controllers and programmable front-end processors. Simulation techniques were used to model applicable configurations and traffic distributions. Comparisons of IBM-360/50 with hardwired communications controllers, upgraded configurations of IBM-360/65 with hardwired communications controllers as well as IBM-360/50 with programmable front-end processors are made. The latter is shown to be the most cost-effective approach for data communications systems. (Author)
