    摘要: Methods and systems are provided that prevent buffer overflow in multibus systems. In one aspect, a method for controlling the flow of data in a multibus system includes, for each node having an associated broadcast bus in the multibus system, generating status information regarding available data storage space of each receive buffer of the node. The method includes broadcasting the status information to the other nodes connected to the broadcast bus and collecting status information regarding the available storage space of receive buffers of the other nodes connected to the broadcast bus. The method also includes determining whether or not to send data from the node to at least one of the other nodes over the broadcast bus based on the collected status information.

In one aspect, a modulation and wavelength division multiplexing system includes a channel source and a waveguide tree structure disposed on a substrate. The tree structure includes waveguides branching from a root waveguide. The waveguides include two or more terminus waveguides coupled to the channel source. The system also includes one or more modulator arrays disposed on the substrate. Each modulator array is optically coupled to one of the two or more terminus waveguides and is configured to modulate channels injected into a terminus waveguide from the channel source to produce corresponding optical signals that propagate from the terminus waveguide along one or more of the waveguides to the root waveguide.
