Distributed processing techniques: interface design for interactive information sharing

J R Wagner, S D Krumbholz, L K Silber

    Journal of Medical Systems
    |January 1, 1978
    PubMed
    Summary

    University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics developed generalized data-handling routines to manage message traffic between clinical lab minicomputers and main-frame systems. This system enhances distributed processing with message queuing and verification for improved performance.
