    摘要: A multiple user data storage, retrieval and distribution system (100) containing a parallel processing computer system that forms a digital information server (208). The server contains a plurality of parallel processors (216n, 218n, 220n, 222n) each connected to a information storage device (224n, 226n, 228n). The user data is stored in a distributed manner amongst the information storage devices (224n, 226n, 228n). The distribution system (100) dynamically allocates the users to the system based upon the user's requested operating mode. During successive user service periods, all the users are supplied their requested data. The system also provides error detection and correction for the data requested by the users. Additional data can be added to the information storage devices (224n, 226n, 228n) during each service period, and select information storage devices can be recalibrated without affecting system operation. Data is retrieved from the information storage devices in an arbitrary order. The system contains an output timing sequencer (Fig. 11) to generate output data in a predefined order. The disclosed apparatus and method find applicability in video servers, medical imaging, special effects and animation, and location based entertainment systems among other applications.

    摘要: A multiple user data storage, retrieval and distribution system containing a parallel processing computer system that forms a digital information server. The server contains a plurality of parallel processors each connected to a information storage device. The user data is stored in a distributed manner amongst the information storage devices. The distribution system dynamically allocates the users to the system based upon the user's requested operating mode. As such, during successive user service periods, all the users are supplied their requested data. The system also provides error detection and correction for the data requested by the users. Furthermore, additional data can be added to the information storage devices during each service period and select information storage devices can be recalibrated without affecting system operation. Even though the system allocates users dynamically such that the data is retrieved from the information storage devices in an arbitrary order, the system contains an output timing sequencer that generates output data in a predefined order no matter the order in which the data is retrieved from the information storage devices. The disclosed apparatus and method find applicability in video servers, medical imaging, special effects and animation and location based entertainment systems among other applications.

    摘要翻译: 包含形成数字信息服务器的并行处理计算机系统的多用户数据存储,检索和分发系统。 服务器包含多个并行处理器,每个并行处理器都连接到信息存储设备。 用户数据以分布式方式存储在信息存储装置中。 分发系统根据用户请求的操作模式动态地将用户分配给系统。 因此,在连续的用户服务期间,向所有的用户提供所请求的数据。 该系统还为用户请求的数据提供错误检测和纠正。 此外,可以在每个服务周期期间向信息存储设备添加附加数据,并且可以在不影响系统操作的情况下重新校准选择信息存储设备。 即使系统动态地分配用户,使得以任意顺序从信息存储设备检索数据,该系统包含输出定时定序器,其以预定的顺序生成输出数据,无论从哪个数据库中检索数据的顺序 信息存储设备。 所公开的装置和方法在视频服务器,医学成像,特殊效果以及基于动画和基于位置的娱乐系统之中找到适用性。
