An Implementation of the MSG Interprocess Communication Protocol

Abstract

This report covers technical development at UCLA-CCN relating to the National Software Works (NSW), during the period July 1, 1976, through December 31, 1976, and is specifically concerned with the CCN implementation of MSG, the interprocess communication mechanism for the NSW. MSG is a message-oriented protocol which also provides subsidiary connection-oriented facilities. PL/MSG, the process-callable interface to CCN's MSG, is an access method designed particularly for use by PL/I programs. The later sections of the report describe the internal design and logic of the CCN implementation, in increasing detail and specificity.
