Abstract: A fan module including: two or more individual fans, each fan having an air movement means and a motor engaged with the air movement means for accelerating air entering each of the two or more individual fans; a temperature sensor for sensing a temperature associated with the two or more fans and for outputting a first signal corresponding to the temperature; rotational speed sensor for outputting a second signal corresponding to a rotational speed of each of the two or more fans; and a processor for receiving the first and second signals and controlling the two or more individual fans based on the first and second signals.

Abstract translation: 一种用于在计算结构中生成全局异步信号的系统和方法。 特别地，实现全局中断和屏障网络，其实现用于根据处理算法来生成全局中断和屏障信号的逻辑，所述全局中断和屏障信号用于控制由计算结构的选定处理节点（12）处的处理元件执行的全局异步操作; 并且包括用于经由低等待时间路径将全局中断和屏障信号传送到元件的处理节点（12）的物理互连。 全局异步信号分别在处理节点（12）处选择用于最佳化处理算法的性能的时间启动中断和屏障操作。 在一个实施例中，全局中断和屏障网络在包括由多个独立网络互连的多个处理节点的可扩展的大规模并行超级计算设备结构中实现。

Abstract: A system and method for generating global asynchronous signals in a computin g structure. Particularly, a global interrupt and barrier network is implement ed that implements logic for generating global interrupt and barrier signals fo r controlling global asynchronous operations perfomed by processing elements a t selected processing nodes (12) of computing structure in accordance with a processing algorithm; and includes the physical interconnecting of the processing nodes (12) for communicating the global interrupt and barrier signals to the elements via low latency paths. The global asynchronous signa ls respectively initiate interrupt and barrier operations at the processing nod es (12) at times selected for otpimizing performance of the processing algorithms. In one embodiment, the global interrupt and barrier network is implemented in a scalable, massively parallel supercomputing device structur e comprising a plurality of processing nodes interconnected by multiple independent networks.
