dc.description.abstract	Interconnection Scheme for NOW aims to provide a network of hosts (distributed computer system) in which distributed computing can be performed. The distributed system akin to the Internet, consists of a few or several hosta connected together by a logical interconnection network. Hosta on the network are grouped into domains, and the domains are interconnected together to form the network. Hosts in a domain are directly connected to every other host within that domain. Within a domain, a single host acts aa a gateway host handling extra-domain messages. To provide the distributed computer system, I implemented Interconnection Scheme with two main functions: provide connectivity among the hosts in the network, and message routing capability between the hosta.	en
