From: Mike Muuss 

BRL is currently engaged in detailed planning for connection
of various computers to a > 100 MIPS supercomputer (Cray-2, ETA 10, etc).

Our strategy uses TCP/IP based networking and standard + local
applications protocols to tie it all together.

TCP and IP have the advantage that they work over any communications
hardware, and are MIL Standards (MILSTD 1777, MILSTD 1778).

Best,
 -Mike Muuss
