Abstract

As requirements for computing increase in magnitude, multiple processor networks have become increasingly important. The demand is a direct outgrowth of the success of VLSI in providing high levels of computation at a modest price. Future levels of performance may well be most effectively met with computer networks where the elemental processes are single VLSI circuits. This paper surveys several common computer networking approaches and presents a novel concept, the Gatlinburg Rings. It is shown to be attractive for large networks.
