    摘要: An interface includes an enclosure having a plurality of walls interconnected to form a parallelepiped having a space therein. The enclosure is positionable to occupy a plurality of slots located in a computer housing of a first type computer. The enclosure has a width corresponding essentially to a total width of the plurality of slots. The interface further includes a computer subsystem of a second type computer disposed within the space of the enclosure. The computer subsystem includes a circuit card, and a distribution card attached to, and electrically coupled with, the circuit card. The distribution card is connectable to a backplane of the first type computer located external to the enclosure and within the computer housing.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for reducing the software overhead of message passing in parallel systems. Special purpose hardware assists in constructing each data message sent through a network. Message passing systems generally require that every message be prefixed with a message header describing the key control parameters of the message. The software task is to construct the message header for every message individually and to transmit the header prefixed to every message. The software is relieved of constructing the message header and uses special purpose hardware to accomplish the job more efficiently.

    摘要: A method and hardware apparatus provide a fault tolerant and flexible multi-stage network addressing scheme for transmitting a message with a header containing control bits for selecting from various destination checking functions to be performed. Upon arrival of the message at a node, destination checking is performed or not in response to the massage's header. If destination checking is not performed, or if destination checking is performed and indicates that the node is the desired destination for the message, the message is accepted. If destination checking is performed and indicates that the node is not the desired destination for the message, the message is rejected. Destination checking is disabled during address assignment, broadcasting and multi-casting, and replaced with one's complement-based verification of the sending node.
