The Network Computing System (NCS) was an implementation of the Network Computing Architecture (NCA). It was created at
Open Network Computing technology from Sun Microsystems, by permitting services to be distributed in a dynamic fashion and offering the possibility of "location independence".[3]

The design and implementation of
Locus Computing, Transarc, Digital Equipment Corporation and Microsoft.[6] It also was the first implementation of universally unique identifiers,[citation needed] these being employed by the location broker to identify objects in the distributed system.[7]
