Control processor

The Control Processor runs a FORTRAN-like language which controls all of the functional elements within the ST-100. (2) The input/...

The astute reader will have noticed that it is possible to perform an entire bond length calculation on a four deep stack without the removal of intermediate results. However in order to take full advantage of this fact we require an Am9511A which has its own individual control processor or microsequencer. 

The Thinking Machines Corporation (TMC) CM5 MPP system was announced in November 1991. This processor is a distributed-memory MIMD machine that supports both the SIMD and MIMD programming models. The hardware is composed of a fat tree of compute processors that are used and administered from control processors. The compute processing nodes consist... 

Modern spectrometers typically have a dedicated acquisition controller/processor, plus a main computer. The latter is usually UNIX based with as much RAM and as much permanent data storage as possible. Ideally, one or more workstations are linked to the host computer to permit data processing and spectral plotting away from the spectrometer. In addition, a recorder to display the signals and a printer to list spectral parameters, chemical shifts, coupling constants, and integral values (all described later) are usually located next to the main computer and monitor.

That was what had made him argue with the military controllers. Processor glitches were an acceptable menace there was so much redundancy built into the plane s electronic architecture it could survive an almost total shutdown but power loss was in a different hazard category altogether. Chapman Adkinson had already decided that if they did try to force him to fly back over the ocean he was going to ditch there and then, and to hell with the penalties they d load into his licence. The biohazard in Xingu couldn t be that lethal, surely ... 

When she entered the annex two of the six beds were unoccupied. One had the privacy screen down to reveal an elderly man who gave her a hopeful talk-to-meplease look, the remaining three were fully screened. She smiled blandly at the lonely man, and turned to Erick s bed, datavising a code at the screen control processor. The screen split at the foot of the bed, shrinking back towards the walls. The visitor stepped inside, and promptly datavised a closure code at it.

Discrete-event simulation is probably the most flexible simulation technique. Flows are here discretely modelled, i.e. at a discrete number of time indices flows are controlled. Processors can represent various system elements depending on the type of flows controlled and the processors internal decision rules. Processors of material flows represent e.g. production facilities where flows are transformed and (possibly) delayed to reflect the time consumption for production. Moreover, processors may also reflect transport or storage facilities where flows are controlled depending on the available capacities. 

The control processor often takes the form of a microprocessor or microcontroller. It is generally the central component within the intelligent sensor and is connected to the other elements. The software routines are implemented within the processor and these are stored within the memory unit. 

In case of complete TMR system, there are three main processors (MPs) as well as I/O processors. Each MP operates in parallel with the other two. I/O control processors manage the data exchange. Triple I/O bus systems connect the trident systems. The MPs use I/O data in the memory for the voting process. Feature and advantages of TMR are as follows ... 

The control processor as depicted in Fig. 3 may be more or less intelligent. It issues the instruction sequence that will be executed by the processor array. In the worst case (which means a less autonomous control processor), when an instruction is not fit for execution in the processor array (e.g., a simple print instruction), it might be offloaded to the front-end processor, which may be much slower than execution in the control processor. In the case of a more autonomous control processor, this can be avoided, thus saving processing interrupts in both the front-end and the control processor. Most DM-SIMD systems have the...
