Bach processor has access to two separate Interprocessor (IP) serial data channels. An IP channel supports as many as 16 processors using a token bus data link control. IP communications is either direct or routed via intervening processors to sup­ port an unlimited number of processors in a given system. 9 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The LAN Multiprocessor Alternative The availability of a large variety of microprocessor and microelectronic components at very low prices allows de­ sign engineers to develop large multimicroprocessor systems that not long ago were economically impractical. Although the topologies of such systems can be as different as the myriad of microprocessor components, one approach to multi- microprocessor design is to take advantage of available microcommunication devices that support Local Area Network technology. By designing interprocessor communications sub­ networks using LAN technology, multimicroprocessor systems can be developed that are both easily expandable and non-CPU specific. A multimicroprocessor system that provides LAN based interprocessor (IP) communications can be easily expanded by ensuring that at least one node on each LAN in the system has the potential to access at least one other LAN. Figure 0-1 illustrates this concept of multiprocessor expansion. This idea is not unique in that many computer networks are multiple LANs coupled by inter-LAN "gateways". As fi­ gure 1-1 indicates, each LAN is not necessarily implemented the same. Many different LAN strategies (i.e., CSMA/CD, Token Passing Bus, Token Ring,...) can be used in the same TOKEN LAN(n-1) BUS PE(i) PE(i+p) TOKEN LAN(n) BUS PE( j) PE(j+q) TOKEN BUS STAR NETWORK LAN(n+2) PE(k) (NET HUB) PE(k+r) (NET HUB) m s Figure 1-1.

  • 12 Questions To... Natami Team - Part 1
    12 questions to... Natami Team - part 1 Banter (c) Polski Portal Amigowy (www.ppa.pl) Today I will tell you about something unique. I will present you the latest 68k CPU! You may wonder... What actually is N68050? The N68050 (N050) is a new 68k family processor developed by the Natami Team. It runs inside the FPGA together with the Natami chipset. The 050 is the first revision of our 68k CPU architecture. Further on, we will extend the architecture to the N68050E and later the N68070 specification. The N68050 softcore will be the default CPU of the Natami system. But if the user wants to, he could also get a separate CPU card with a physical 68060 for his Natami system, connected to the mainboard over the SyncZorro bus. The development history of the N68050 core. One could say it started in 1998, when Gunnar tried to write his first 68k softcore. But FPGAs were unfortunately too small to accomplish this task back then. The actual development of the Natami softcore started two years ago, after we dismissed Coldfire as a possible CPU for the Natami. Coldfire was interesting, but our testing and estimates showed us that solving it with our own softcore is even better. The first "N68070" softcore design idea was similar to a crossbreed of 68000 and Coldfire. Our first concept was to use a pipeline similar to the Coldfire V3 pipeline. To improve performance we changed this and reworked the pipeline to be longer. Our goal for the softcore was to reach a higher clockrate and to be in all regards better than the original Motorola 68060 clocked at the same speed.

A given ISA may be implemented with different microarchitectures.[1] Implementations might vary due to different goals of a given design or due to shifts in technology.[2] Computer architecture is the combination of microarchitecture and instruction set design. Relation to instruction set architecture The ISA is roughly the same as the programming model of a processor as seen by an assembly language programmer or compiler writer. The ISA includes the execution model, processor registers, address and data formats among other things. The Intel Core microarchitecture microarchitecture includes the constituent parts of the processor and how these interconnect and interoperate to implement the ISA. The microarchitecture of a machine is usually represented as (more or less detailed) diagrams that describe the interconnections of the various microarchitectural elements of the machine, which may be everything from single gates and registers, to complete arithmetic logic units (ALU)s and even larger elements.

Yanagida SPring-8, Hyogo 679-5198, Japan Abstract In September 1999, we started to upgrade the present linac system to the new one by replacing a part of We integrated an injector linac control system to the hardware and introducing a standard software scheme as SPring-8 standard system in September 2000. As a result described in below. At this time, we also introduced the of this integration, the SPring-8 accelerator complex was standard database system for the linac control [3,4]. controlled by one unified system. Because the linac was Because the linac played a role as an injector to the continuously running as the electron beam injector not booster synchrotron and the NewSUBARU storage ring, it only for the SPring-8 storage ring but also for was necessary to avoid downtime due to the integration NewSUBARU, we had to minimize the hardware procedures. We separated the hardware upgrade work into modification to reduce the time for the development and two phases, that is, we replaced the system with minimum testing of the new control system. The integration method modification at the first phase and postponed an overall was almost the same as that of the integration of the replacement to the near future.

  • RIP Architecture L Technical Information
    L Technical Information RIP Architecture A raster image processor (RIP) is a computer with a very specific task to perform. It translates a series of computer commands into something that an output device can print. For an imagesetter, this means the instructions that instruct the laser to expose certain areas on the film. Acronyms ASIC Application Specific Integrated Circuit RIP architecture refers to the CISC Complex Instruction Set Computer 1An excellent source of design of the RIP, particularly CPU Central Processing Unit information on computer EPROM Erasable Programmable Read-Only technology is The Computer the hardware and software Memory Glossary by Alan Freedman. that make the RIP work. It is I/O Input/Output It is available from The impossible to discuss RIP MHz Megahertz Computer Language architecture without MIPS Million Instructions Per Second Company, (215) 297-5999. mentioning a number of 1 (also the name of a company that computer buzz words , many manufactures CPUs) of which are acronyms (see PROM Programmable Read-Only Memory list to right). And so to begin, RIP Raster Image Processor we’ll start with a review of RISC Reduced Instruction Set Computer computer basics, and see how SPARC Scalable Performance ARChitecture those principles apply to RIPs. TAXI Transparent Asynchronous Xmitter receiver Interface XMO eXtended Memory Option Computer basics The CPU of a computer is where the bulk of the computing gets done. Microprocessor designations The CPU may also be called the Intel Corporation microprocessor if the CPU is built on a • 8080, 8088 single miniaturized electronic circuit (i.e. • 8086, 80286, 80386, 80486 chip).
