A network of computing nodes is connected by communication channels into fully-interconnected units and groups of units. Each unit has one and only one direct connection to each other unit in a group, and any one computing node in any unit has a direct connection to at most one other unit. The nodes are suitably computing networks themselves so there can be any number of levels of recursion. In a method of routing and transferring information, each node is given an address having address portions respectively identifying its location at each level of recursion. The information is sent from that port of the sending node which has a port identification identical to the highest order address portion in the destination address which is different from the corresponding address portion of the sending computing node. Each computing node suitably has processing assemblies each having a digital processor, first and second memories, partitioning circuitry, and assembly control circuitry, communicating on a common intranodal shared bus. Each assembly is a port to an external bus. Each digital processor is able to communicate the information it generates from its first memory through the partitioning circuitry to a bus simultaneously with the partitioning circuitry also permitting access by other information to the second memory along the other bus.
