Abstract

See full text

A network of digital modules having store-through and non-store-through cache memories, is provided with intercommunication capability by means of two sets of system busses each of which are replicates of each other. The system busses provide a higher throughput by both being available to each of the digital modules so that a requesting digital module can alternately use a second system bus if the first system bus happens to be busy. Failure of one system bus will allocate transmission service to the second operating system bus thus providing redundancy. Alternatively, each of the system busses can be isolated for partitioning the digital modules into two different operating systems which are independent of each other.
