Abstract

AT&T plans to adopt the X.25 communications protocol endorsed by IBM and other computer equipment firms. The target date for network implementation of 1982 allows time for regulatory approval. The move would set AT&T into direct competition with Tymnet and Telenet in the packet switching network field.
