Abstract

A Generic Network Executive (GNE) package is presented in this thesis. It encompasses the strategy and methodology to follow when implementing data communication software. GNE was designed for portability and high utilization of available resources (efficiency). It does not impose implementation constraints because it does not include features specific to any system (hardware or operating system}. It uses a highly concurrent process model with a pipelined structure . It is not protocol dependent, rather it is meant to be used to implement low level services for higher level communic ation protocols. It is intended to provide interprocess communication in distributed systems by coupling application programs with a general purpose packet delivery system, i.e., a datagram service.
