Abstract
A parallel processing computer system having an improved architecture for communication of information between nodes. The computer system of the present invention comprises at least three nodes; each of the three nodes for processing information. Each of the nodes comprises a routing means for routing information between nodes. The routing means allow reservation of a route through the network of nodes. Messages may then be transmitted from an origin node to a destination node over the reserved route. Use of a route reservation system reduces requirements for buffering of information at intermediate nodes on a route, improves message passing latency and increases node-to-node bandwidth. The present invention teaches communication of messages between nodes in a synchronous manner.
