Abstract
In this paper the development of a local area network based on Ethernet running a remote procedure call protocol is described. A working definition of the software protocol is provided together with the implementation details for an LSI 11/23 computer running RT11 and for a VAX 11/750 computer running VMS. The performance characteristics of this network have been measured and data rates of at least 62 kbytes s−1 have been consistently recorded for disk-to-disk data transfer between these two machine types.
