ABSTRACT:
Multiple processing systems each inclue an administrator processor and a plurality of intelligent resources (like a printer, encoder, for example) which are coupled to the associated administrator processor via a local area network (LAN). Each administrator processor is coupled to two pluralities or sets of intelligent resources with one set being connected through a primary connection node of the associated administrative processor and with the other set being connected to an associated secondary connection node. Each administrator processor is also directly coupled to exactly two other administrator processors through its associated primary and secondary connection nodes to form a closed ring network. An intelligent resource normally assigned to one administrator processor may be assigned (if available) to an adjacent administrator processor to reallocate the workload in the ring network and adjust to certain failures in the system.
