ABSTRACT:
A dual ring topology for multiprocessing computer systems. The dual ring topology interconnects multiple building blocks (nodes) to each other, each node comprising processing elements, memory and IO devices. The topology allows for the dual rings to be temporarily transformed into a single ring structure while a node is added, repaired or replaced while the rest of the system continues to operate thereby allowing the remaining nodes in the system to remain fully connected to one another.
