Description
Reporting on a variety of research, the papers in this volume consider many aspects of current and future computer communication. The potential of certain systems in developing countries forms the main perspective. As well as examining networks, ISDN, message systems, and digital switching systems, a number of other aspects are considered, such as data security, standards, and economic and social factors.
