<p>The machine comprises several processors (P1, P2, P3), peripheral members (1-5) and linking means (B1, B2) which link the processors to the peripheral members for transfer of data during conventional input/output operations. Each processor (P1, P2, P3) is linked to each of the other processors by means of a channel (b) which is dedicated solely to the inter-processor communication function. Such a machine permits a high transactional throughput and is fault-tolerant. <IMAGE></p> |
