Critical Item Product Function Specification for the Multiprocessor Shared Memory (MSM).

Abstract

This report is a specification that establishes the performance, design, and testing of the Multiprocessor Shared Memory (MSM). The MSM is a device that has been designed to supersede the DMA10, a direct memory access device built by the Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC). The MSM provides common memory for the DECsystem-10 (KI10 or KL10 processor) and the PDP-11 minicomputer (UNIBUS device). It also provides communications between processors and control. The MSM can configure up to four KI10 or KL10 processors and up to eight PDP-11's. (Author)
