Compatibility study of packet-switched data networks / by Gregor V. Bochmann.: Co24-13/1976E-PDF
"New data communication facilities are being developed based on the principle of packet switching. Compared to the conventional facilities based on real telephone and high-speed circuits, this new technology is characterized by a higher degree of resource sharing, implying lower cost, and a better transmission quality. However, this new technology also brings new problems for the users. More complex communication protocols have to be implemented in order to make use of the new communication facilities. Different protocols have been developed by different computer manufacturers and carriers, with the result that compatibility between the different systems is a problem"--Introduction, page 1.
