ARCnet began life in the late 1970s as a distributed data processing network. When demand for office networks shifted to Ethernet in the late 80s, the token-passing protocol found a new home in real-time, embedded control applications. It has proven its reliability in the seven million nodes currently installed worldwide. ARCnet is used in hundreds of embedded applications that affect everyday lives. ARCnet is used in planes, trains, boats, and cars. It`s used in elevators, fast-food restaurants, stores, buildings` climate control and security systems, and even bank ATMs. ARCnet also has become an important part of factory automation systems. The protocol`s advantages in real-time control systems include determinism, reliable message delivery, peer-to-peer communication, automatic reconfiguration, high node count, long distance, variable baud rates, and variable message sizes. 2 figs.
