Multibus II a bus architecture for fault resilient systems

摘要

Multibus II, though not often considered as a fault resilient bus architecture, can be used as the basis for systems that exhibit degrees of fault resilience. The bus definition, IEEE 1296, together with further software definitions of Multibus Systems Architecture provide a flexible hardware and software framework for highly reliable systems. This coupled with ongoing developments, like on-line service and repair, by the Multibus Manufacturers Group can provide cost effective solutions to the classic problems of fault resilience.
