ABSTRACT:
In an information processing system of the type having widely dispersed terminals tied together by a series communications link, common data which is of interest to all stations is collected and registered in a simplified manner. The common information, consisting of the status of each of the stations, is collected by any station sending out a search instruction as part of an information word. As the information word passes through each successive station, each respective station adds a status bit to the information word indicating the status thereof. When the new-completed information word returns to the originating station, the common data is registered and displayed. Also the common data is sent, along with a "register common data" instruction, to all other stations via the communication link. Upon receipt of such information and instruction, each station registers and displays the common data.
