Abstract
In a world increasingly populated with Ethernets and Ethernet-like nets a few sites continue to experiment with rings of active repeaters for local data communication. This paper explores some of the engineering problems involved in designing a ring that has no central control, and then compared the M.I.T.-designed ring with Ethernet on a variety of operational and subtle technical grounds, on each of which the ring may possess important or interesting advantages.
