Transputers and routers: Components for concurrent machines

Authors: May, David, Thompson, Peter

Abstract:

A transputer is a complete microcomputer integrated in a single VLSI chip. Each transputer has a number of communication links, allowing transputers to be interconnected to form concurrent processing systems. The transputer instruction set contains Instructions to send and receive messages through these links, minimising delays in inter-transputer communication. Transputers can be directly interconnected to form specialised networks, or can be interconnected via routing chips. Routing chips are VLSI building blocks for interconnection networks: they can support system-wide message routing at high throughput and low delay.
