ABSTRACT:
A data processing system includes a system management unit, a number of central subsystems, a main memory and a number of peripheral subsystems all coupled in common to a system bus. Any subsystem may generate a command which includes a first field specifying a destination subsystem, a second field specifying the operation the destination subsystem is to perform. If a response is required, the subsystem generating the initial command may specify a third subsystem for receiving the response command.
