This thesis presents a software development which enhances the applicability of the Operations and Science Instrument System (OASIS) software for teleoperation of scientific experiments or process plants at remote location. Software developed includes a TCP/IP communication interface for OASIS in the MicroVMS and SUN/Unix environments, and modification of previously developed software for a local controlling computer (LCC). Major improvements in software design implementation are done on the command processor task. A new software module is written for the communication part to accommodate the TCP/IP protocol which replaces the DECnet protocol. Results of comparison and measurements of both versions of OASIS are also presented.Type
