DCT — A testbed approach to distributed systems research
Walter L. Heimerdinger, Devesh Bhatt · 1984
The rationale and conceptual design 1s presented for the Distributed Computer Testbed (DCT), currently being developed at Honeywell's Systems and Research Center. The DCT 1s a highly reconfigurable and Instrumented tool that will allow experimentation 1n a variety of distributed computing areas, ranging from performance evaluation of media access protocols to concept validation of distributed fault-tolerance strategies. Work 1s continuing on the detailed design and Implementation of DCT.
