Abstract
A computer network system repetitively distributes messages including uniquely identified blocks of real time data containing a current data image over a broadcast communications network to all real time stations for storage of each repetition of each entire block of data directly in station memory at a unique address space assigned to that uniquely identified block of data. The real time stations receive the blocks of data and alternatively receive other messages from the real time stations. The other messages have a recognized standard protocol, such as the TCP/IP or UDP/IP protocol of the Internet Protocol Suite.
