ABSTRACT:
A task communicator for each computer in a multiple computer system is disclosed. The task communicator provides communication of data values between cooperating tasks executed by different computers. The task communicator comprises a data values table (804) storing the current data values required for the execution of each task assigned to its computer. A store data value module (802) which stores the data values received from the other computers in the data values table. A task dispatcher (806) which copies the data values required for the execution of a selected task into a task input table (810). A release task module (814), which releases for execution the identified task and data values stored in the task input table. A task output table (812) storing the values of the data resulting from the execution of each task by its own computer. A task results message sender (818) which sends to all of the computers in the system messages containing the new data values stored in the task output table by the executed task.
