Communications Processor System.

Abstract

This document is the specification for a Central Processor (CP) which is specifically designed for Communications Processing System (CPS) applications. These CPS applications include: circuit switching, message switching, packet switching, digital multiplexers and concentrators. In this context, CP refers to a set of equipment which contains Communications Processor Units (CPU's), Input/Output (I/O) channels, performance monitor units, channel units, control panels, some form of data and program memory and a means to interconnect them. Therefore, this specification describes a family of computer controlled units which together comprise a CP and which can be equipped in various combinations and numbers to perform, efficiently, any of the CPS applications or any combination of them.
