Abstract
The term office automation generally refers to the machine-aided creation,communication, storage, retrieval, and control of messages and documents handled by professional, clerical, and secretarial personnel in an office environment. This implies that any system that is installed for office use should ideally interact in an adequate manner with existing equipment and possess a degree of flexibility and open-endedness to adapt to as yet hazily defined future requirements. This is particularly true of office communication systems which include various terminals, storage and processing equipments for text, voice, data and picture.
