Les systèmes à logique partagée: La conception des systèmes de traitement de textes à logique partagée procède de la même idée que celle mise en œuvre dans le domaine de l'informatique par les systèmes dits "multiclaviers" de saisie de données: partager les possibilités de traitement logique, de stockage des textes, d'impression, etc. d'une même "unité centrale" entre plusieurs postes de travail. 1, record 1, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20de%20traitement%20de%20textes%20%C3%A0%20logique%20partag%C3%A9e
