In our research in distributed data processing systems, we have developed design principles, algorithm concepts, feasibility criteria, and quantitative trade-offs that can be used in the creation of network management functions. In particular, we concentrated on the following five areas: (1) Routing Control and Relay Management; (2) Reconfiguration Control; (3) Interconnection Network Design; (4) Deadlock Detection; and (5) Scheduling. The results we have developed will provide guidelines and design laws for the systematic design and construction of distributed data processing systems such that the users' requirements are satisfied. By using these results, we will be able to develop reliable, effective, modifiable networks with low cost and lead times.
