A Device for Coupling Digital Computers

摘要

The author certificate presents a device for coupling digital computers into a uniform computer system containing a pulsed exchange channel unit and a potential control channel unit. The pulsed exchange channel unit has exchange lines, an information line, lines, gates, and assemblies for reception and transmission of information, and a coincidence circuit for transmission and separation potentials. The potential control channel unit has indicator and separation lines, coincidence circuits, and an assembly for translating the indicators, and an inverter. To increase the economy of the computer system without a pilot dispatcher for the productive machine, the information lines of each computer are connected in the pulsed exchange channel unit to the input of the gate supplying information to the left machine.
