The Network Computing System (NCS) was an implementation of the Network Computing Architecture. It was created at Apollo Computer in the 1980s. It comprised a set of tools for implementing distributed software applications, or distributed computing.

Remote procedure calls in the Distributed Computing Environment (DCE/RPC) were based on Apollo's work on NCA.
