NCS, Apollo's RPC system consisting of a interface compiler (stub
generator) and network message runtime library, runs on System V systems
(R2 or R3) that support the BSD socket interface.  (No other BSD extensions
are required.)  NCS also runs under BSD, VMS, and MS/DOS.

NCS was described in a paper in the Summer '87 Usenix.  NCS is available
(under license) to universities for cost-of-distribution.  Contact me
for more details.
