Abstract​

RFC 90 describes the Campus Computing Network (CCN) of UCLA as it prepared to join the ARPA Network as a host of the "Service Center" type. It surveys the CCN hardware -- an IBM 360/91KK with a 4-million-byte fast memory, its channel and peripheral configuration, and the remote terminals it supports -- and the MVT version of OS/360 under which the Model 91 operates. It then lists the user software offered to Network users (the FORTRAN and PL/1 compilers, PL/C, Assembler G, Algol F and linkage editors, and the interactive systems URSA, APL, OLMS and TSO) and the two batch subsystems, RJS (Remote Job Service) and QUICKRUN (fast batch), before setting out the special considerations of core memory, disk space and rates. The memo closes with the third-level protocols CCN planned to offer to the Network -- NETRJS, NETCRT, NETTRANS and NETTYPE -- and a list of references.
