Completely new large multiprocessor system architecture is based on a modular arrange of processor modules that connect to a central array, thus avoiding inefficiencies in existing multiprocessor architectures

摘要

System architecture is based on a large number of processor modules (PM), whereby each module comprises a processor and a logic component or signal expander (SE). The signal expander transmits information from the processor to further ports. The individual modules are connected to a central array, so that all signals from the process modules are transmitted to it. The components and central array have improved connection paths and special functions that can be implemented in the components to increase processing power.
