Hi! I'd like to have certain basic info about bitnet for a computer communi- cations report I have to submit. I'm a grad student in EE so I'd like some technical facts like: 0 What is the bit rate on bitnet links? 0 What type of cables are used? 0 What is the baud rate? 0 What type of keying PSK,FSK or DPSK is used? 0 Does it use TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) or FDMA (Frequency Div. Mult. Acc.)? 0 How are the msgs from various nodes coordinated? Is there some central controller or many regional controllers? 0 Are there priority queues; pre-emptive or non-pre-emptive? Apart from these any other basic info related to topics taught in a first level graduate comp. comm. course would be welcome. Thanks Ajoy K. Bhatia
