******************************************************************************* The Convergence of Computers and Communications -- Part II David J. Farber Alfred S. Fitler Moore Professor of Telecommunications Systems University of Pennsylvania ******************************************************************************* Twenty Five years ago, an experiment at the UC, Irvine showed the ability of the new distributed systems technology to create large a virtual computer system out of individual computers and telecommunications systems. During the following years, research in systems and advancements in telecommunications has given us the potential for extending those ideas to allow for the creation of a National Backplane Computer. This talk, taken from the 1995 SIGCOMM Award Keynote will explore this line of research and will project where this further blending of communications and computer technology will lead. ******************************************************************************* Tuesday, 10 October 95 Moore School - 216 3:00 - 4:30 **********************************************************************
