A Standard for Computer Networks

Abstract

The development of suitable standards is a vital key to developing ing the full potential of multi-access computer networks. To date work is being done on only a few of the standards that will be required, and among these few, progress is distressingly slow. Divergent procedures are rapidly becoming entrenched in areas where there should be standards and if the current rate of standards development is extrapolated, it is doubtful that the necessary standards can be developed in time.
