分布式并行处理和多晶片机系统

Distributed Parallel Processing and Multitransputer Systems

本文首先描述以CSP 理论为基础的一种经命名通道通信、有层次结构的分布式并行处理模型,然后详细分析、归纳occam 语言和晶片机(transputer)为支持和实现这种并行处理模型所具有的结构特征,并以具体系统为例探讨了以晶片机为结构组件构造的多晶片机系统在系统结构上的一般特性。对于多晶片机系统在九十年代可能的发展变化,也作了简要的分析评估。

Based on the CSP theory,this paper first describes a distributed parallel processing model composed of concurrent processes with hierarchy structure communicating by named channels. Then,it analyses in detail some structure features of OCCAM and transputer used to support and realize the parallel model.Furthermore,it exposes some general architecture features and introduces briefiy several prototypes of multitransputer systems(MTS).Finally,the possible further improvements and developments of the architecture for MTS are also addressed.
