ABSTRACT:
A method for a distributed processing system which includes the steps of developing a control program for controlling outputs at a plurality of I/O nodes, distributing executable portions of the program to the I/O nodes through a network, broadcasting input status data from the I/O nodes on the network and controlling the outputs at the I/O nodes in response to the input status data broadcast on the network and the executable portions of the program residing at the I/O nodes.
