Basic networking implementation for the small computer environment

TL;DR: Development of a simple networking protocol which employs existing terminal line hardware and operating system services has created a separate networking category which provides the small computer user with what appears to be a reasonable tradeoff between network implementation complexity and network services.

Abstract: Development of a simple networking protocol which employs existing terminal line hardware and operating system services has created a separate networking category we refer to as basic networking. Basic networking provides the small computer user, especially those in a diverse computing environment such as offices, schools, and research institutes, with what appears to be a reasonable tradeoff between network implementation complexity and network services.
