ABSTRACT:
A multicomputer system and method for automatic sequential-to-parallel program partition, scheduling and execution. The plurality of computer are connected via a uni-directional slotted ring (backbone). The ring supports, with deterministic delays, point-to-point, broadcast and EXCLUSIVE-READ operations over labeled tuples. The execution of parallel programs uses a connectionless computing method that forms customized coarse grain SIMD, MIMD and pipelined processors automatically using the connected multicomputers. The disclosed multicomputer architecture is also resilient to processor and backbone failures.
