SIGNAL BYPASS SYSTEM FOR PARALLEL COMPUTER

摘要

PURPOSE:To omit the intervention of the data processing part of a computer and to increase the communication speed between computers, by setting a bypass state holding circuit provided separately from the data processing part of the computer and bypassing the input and the output of the computer. CONSTITUTION:When a bypass state holding circuit 14 is set, communication data, etc. never pass through a data processing part 15 thereafter. This can omit such a conventional case where the communication data received by the part 15 is transmitted again. Thus the communication of data is possible with no delay. Furthermore, it is enough for a bypass circuit 12 to make just a signal route conductive by providing an input selecting circuit 11 and an output selecting circuit 13. Thus a bypass is attained with a small quantity of simple hardware.
