PROCESS FOR INTERCONNECTING THE NODES OF A REAL TIME PARALLEL COMPUTER

摘要

Process for interconnecting the nodes of a real time parallel computer, in which use is made, as an interconnection system, of a local switching network with virtual channels, each virtual channel being associated with a given pass band, so as to ensure end to end control of the transmission latency of a message to be transmitted on a real time basis, in a chain including a transmitting node (A) with a main processor (3A) and an interconnection interface adaptor (4A), a receiving node (B) with a main processor (3B) and an interconnection interface adaptor (4B), and at least one switch (1) connecting the said interface adaptors (3B, 4B).
