ABSTRACT
Previously, the study of network computers has been focused on the analysis of communication costs, optimal message routing, and the construction of a communications network connecting geographically distributed computing centers. While these problems are far from being completely solved, enough progress has been made to allow the construction of reasonably efficient network computers. One problem which has not been solved, however, is making such networks economically viable. The solution of this problem is the object of our analysis.

Priority Assignment in a Network of Computers
This research is aimed at developing analytical tools for system modeling and analysis of real-time computer networks. We formulate an idealized mathematical model for a multiserver system with a finite length nonpreemptive priority queue.
A cost-effective reliable multipath interconnection network
A new class of multistage interconnection networks is proposed. A network in this class consists of a standard multistage network, such as an omega network, augmented by multiplexers at the source nodes and demultiplexers at the destination. In addition,...
Mobile Network Computers Should be the Terminal of Mobile Communication Networks
In this study, based on the concept of a mobile network computer, the author points out that a modern mobile communication network should be referred to as a mobile computer network and a modern mobile communication terminal should be referred to as a "...
