	It seems to be a multiprocessor shared memory. Each processor can map in one or two windows into this memory, and also send interrupts to other processors.

		+	: Yes, that was roughly my guess ([[Talk:Network Control Program (ARPANET)#What is an NCP implementation?\|here]]) - "maybe a shared memory between several machines". The details are interesting - if you work them out, maybe do a page on it? [[User:Jnc\|Jnc]] ([[User talk:Jnc\|talk]]) 16:51, 10 February 2025 (CET)

	Reading the NMCVR file, I get the impression the Newman device might be a Chaos network interface, perhaps with DMA. No wait, reading NMDFS I see it can talk several PDP-11 machines. So some kind of message passing? The device is also called the "NM-crock", and referred to as a "memory system".
