IBM and A.T.&T. May Dominate Data Communication by 1986

Article Abstract:

A recent study, by Frost and Sullivan, indicates that IBM and AT&T will control thirty percent of the data communications market by 1986. Data communication sales are expected to reach $1.5 billion by 1986. This growth will result from small computers that require interconnection with each other and large remote data bases. Service carriers and satellite carriers are also becoming more dominant in this market. End users focus upon data communication services, private dedicated lines and networks, dial-up public telephone networks and packet- switched public networks.
