Abstract
An interconnect controller for use in an arbitrary topology collection of nodes in a network suitable for use for both data sharing and distributed computing. The interconnect controller provides four (4) serial ports and two (2) parallel ports for communicating with adjacent nodes in a network. Linked ports between two nodes provide a continuous stream of information with idle packets filling non-data transfer cases. The logic of the interconnect controller provides for adaptive routing and to topology independence and allows for the sharing of a common clock for synchronizing the packet transmission.
