Implementation of a Serial Delay Insertion Type Loop Communication for a Real Time Multitransputer System.

Abstract

This thesis presents a design and implementation of a model of a multicluster loop interface. This Delay Insertion Loop type of interface is based on the IMS T424 Transputer and the Concurrent Sequential Processes type of programming language OCCAM. The Loop-type of communication systems are described and the Delay Insertion type of interface has been selected as the most appropriate one for high performance real-time applications. The OCCAM programming language, hosted on the VAX 11/780 VMS system (VAX-Virtual address extension, VMS-Virtual Memory System) was used to program the simulated version of the multicluster loop interface. Keywords include: Transputer, Occam, Concurrent Processing, Multiprocessing, Multiprocessor, Multitransputer, Multicluster, Real Time System, Loop, and Delay Insertion Loop Interface.
