摘要:
A combiner/memory system interconnects a plurality of computer systems using for example the new HIPPI standard link. The combiner system includes it's own internal storage for rapid shared access to all connected computer systems. The combiner/memory system includes a smart switch for reading header information, arbitrating messages and connecting computers to each other or to the internal shared storage. The system also includes a mechanism for synchronization of cooperating processes.

摘要:
A massively parallel system has a self-timed interface (STI) in which a clock signal clocks bit serial data onto a parallel, electrically conductive bus and the clock signal is transmitted on a separate line of the bus. The received data on each line of the bus is individually phase aligned with the clock signal. Digital data is transmitted at high speeds via the parallel bus to provide a scalable communications network for parallel processing systems while eliminating precise bus length and system clock rates as a critical or limiting factor.
