    摘要: An apparatus for loading BIOS stored on a direct access storage device in a personal computer system, the system comprising direct access storage device, and a processor card removably mounted to a planar board. The processor card comprises a system processor and ROM memory, while the planar board includes a main memory. A master boot record is stored on the direct access storage device. The master boot record contains a data segment and an executable code segment, the data segment representing the hardware configuration of the personal computer system. A first portion of BIOS included in the ROM memory initializes the system and causes loading of the master boot record into main memory. This first portion of BIOS further compares the hardware configuration data of the master boot record with the hardware configuration data in the ROM memory to verify compatibility with the system processor. Once compatibility of the master boot record with the system processor is verified, the first portion of BIOS transfers control to an executable code segment of the master boot record to effect loading of the remaining portion of BIOS into main memory, and the first portion of BIOS is discarded.

    摘要: In a communication system wherein stored data file record entities are designatable by common names unrelated to their storage locations in the system, names are adopted selectively as unique or non-unique. As a check on uniqueness, requests to entities bearing unique names require a response by each system station at which entities so named are stored. More than one response is treated as a system error. By present conventions, requests to entities with non-unique names do not require responses. Applications made possible by non-unique names of this type are described in the present disclosure.

    摘要: Computer systems linked to nodes in a communication network communicate directly with each other to establish name associations for entities (e.g. programs, storage files, etc.) susceptible of being shared across the network, and thereafter communicate further by names (rather than addresses) to establish sessions (i.e. logical connections over the network) between entities. Each system maintains a table of names assigned to locally accessible entities. The name and session establishment processes are architected to avoid dependence on any "central" or "master" system, and to allow for extension of communications relating to these processes across devices linking portions of the network associated with different communication media or channels.
