The addition of one or more additional computers to a multiple computer system having replicated shared memory (RSM) or partial or hybrid RSM, is disclosed. The or each additional computer (M4) has its independent local memory (502) initialised by the system to at least partially replicate the independent local memory of the computers (M1-M3) of the multiple computer system.
