Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate fault-tolerant operation by including a routing element coupled with the central processor and peripheral device of a subprocessing system so as to transmit data between the central processor and peripheral device of the subprocessing system. SOLUTION: Subprocessor systems 10A and 10B include central processors CPUs 12, routers 14, and plural input/output I/O packet interfaces 16 connected to many I/O devices 17 by characteristic input/output NIO buses. The MPs 18 of the subprocessor system 10A and 10B connect IEEE1149. one-test buses 17 and registers used by the MPs 18 to transmit states and control information between elements and MPs 18 to elements of the subprocessor systems through on-line access port OLAP interfaces included in the elements.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To check the error of a processor at an interface spot without affecting the processor performance by providing a specific table means and also a means which receives a message from a peripheral device and decides whether the access should be permitted to a memory means based on the received message. SOLUTION: The routers 14A and 14B are connected to the subprocessor systems 10A and 10B, and the I/O packets 16A and 16B are connected to the routers 14A and 14B respectively. This device of such a constitution has a table means which includes plural entries to discriminate permission of the access to a part of a memory means against one of its peripheral devices. Therefore, the message packet sent via an I/O has the information on the originator and the destination. Then a receiving CPU refers to the external source that is permitted to access its memory via an access propriety check and a conversion (AVT) table and checks whether the access is permitted or not.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a multiprocessor system via a single system by attaining a fault tolerant action through the fail-first and fail-functional actions. SOLUTION: The transmitting clock signals existing on a two-way link are supplied to a pair of transmitting and receiving elements in order to demarcate the clock cycles and also to receive the multi-bit words in a processing system which includes the paired transmitting and receiving elements connected to each other for communication of the multi-bit words including the multi-bit data words and multi-bit command words. Then one of paired transmitting and receiving elements transmits the data to the other element in form of a series of multi-bit data words, transmits the multi-bit data words in every clock cycle and transmits the multi-bit command words in every clock cycle and with no sequence.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To execute the error check of a processor so as not to affect performance at the spot of an interface. SOLUTION: Routers 14A and 14B are connected to sub processor systems 10A and 10B which are one duplex pair of this multiprocessor system and I/O packet interfaces 16A and 16B are connected to the routers. Message packets are copied by the routers and sent by a method for ensuring the synchronization of the both of the pair. Since interruption issued from an I/O element is provided with the information of the cause of the interruption and transmitted by the message packet similarly to other information transfer, protection by the CRC(cyclic redundancy check) of the interruption is performed and the need of deciding the cause from a CPU side is eliminated. The message packet sent through the I/O is provided with the information of an originator and a destination and a reception CPU refers to an external source for permitting access to the memory by an access propriety check and conversion (AVT) chart and checks whether or not the access is allowed.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the processing system cost by providing an error inspecting function and masking a fault through hardware in duplex mode operation. SOLUTION: A data processing system 10 is equipped with two subprocessor systems 10A and 10B which have the same constitution and functions. This pair of the subprocessor systems 10A and 10B include a processor device (CPU) 12, a router 14, and an I/O packet interface 16 having a relative I/O device 17. Each of the pair of the CPUs 12 receive an error signal and returns an echo-back error signal to a couple of data communication elements. Then it is determined whether or not each CPU 12 continues to operate according to the error signal and echo-back error signal; and then one of the CPUs 12 continues to operate and the other CPU 12 finishes operating.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a multiplex processor system combining the both of two approaches with a fault telerant architecture, a hardware redundancy and a software recovery technique by a single system. SOLUTION: A multiprocessor system 10 includes a number of sub-processor systems 10A and 10B each of which is substantially composed into the same one. The one CPU 12 is the sub-processor systems 10A and 10B is possible to perform communication through the I/O device 17 of the system of the CPU 12 of the system and a routing element 14. The communication between the I/O device 17 operating in a simplex mode and the CPUs 12 is performed by the message made into a packet. The CPUs 12 and the I/O device are written in the memory of the CPU 12 of the system or are read from the memory. The protection of the memory is maintained by each CPU 12 provided with the propriety inspection for the reading/writing to the memory of the CPU 12.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate fault-tolerant operation by establishing synchronized and substantially lock-step operation of a 2nd processor element by a 1st processor element which should have the 2nd processor element executing the same instruction at substantially the same moment with the 1st processor element. SOLUTION: A frequency confinement clock signal is used to sent symbols between CPUs 12 of subprocessor systems 10A and 10B paired with routers 14A and 14B. Each route 14 is equipped with six two-way TNet ports 0-5. Two ports 4 and 5 used to connect to the CPU 12 are constituted differently to some extent. This difference enables operation in synchronized lock step mode. For example, a message packet received by the port 3 of the route 14A, for example, is copied by the router 14A and sent from the routers 4 and 5 so that the same symbol is transmitted to the CPU 12 at substantially the same time.
