Abstract
A distributed computer system having a plurality of digital computer systems interconnected by a bus. Each digital computer system runs one or more programs. When it receives a command directed to a system device or a program, it determines whether it can fulfill the command. If not, it determines which one of the other digital computer systems can fulfill the command based upon retaining information stored locally and forwards the command to the other digital computer system.
