Providing multi‐user access to distributed array processors

摘要

AbstractThis paper describes the integration of two ICL Distributed Array Processors (DAPs) into a dual ICL 2976 configuration running the Edinburgh Multi‐Access System (EMAS). The principles underlying the general multi‐access service are not compromised; special scheduling arrangements provide effective control and use of the DAP resource while allowing multi‐user access to the DAPs for DAP program develo
