Abstract

The objective of the THESEUS project is to develop a terminal that enables stock brokers located in Europe to communicate not only with their national stock exchange, but also with all the other European stock exchanges. Such a terminal is necessary to put into practice the EC directives concerning the opening of the European capital market. This paper presents an overview of the THESEUS terminal design strategy. It focuses on the communication protocol stack design and the implementation of broadband network access. The first European demonstration, using national host access facilities, was conducted successfully in January 1998. An overview of this demonstration is presented.
