Conference paper
A system of APL functions to study computer networks
Abstract
A collection of programs and procedural conventions will be described which were developed as part of a larger study of modeling and design of computer networks. This work was conducted under Navy Contract X0014-72-C-0299, and was based on approaches developed by Dr. R. G. Casey, to whom I am indebted for his helpful suggestions and encouragement. The programs are written on the APL terminal system. For proper understanding of the programming language used, it is desirable for the reader to refer to Reference 1. These programs make it possible to create, modify and evaluate graph theoretic representations of computer networks in minutes while working at the terminal.
