Abstract
Recent advances in hardware technology have led to marked decreases in the costs of processors in computer systems. Reduced costs of processors have led to the design and implementation of distributed function computer architectures, using multiple dedicated processors. This paper outlines the hardware, modular operating system and protection features of such a distributed function computer, designed for time shared operation.Keywords
