The emphasis on high-definition production, distribution and play-out is presenting another set of evolutionary challenges to the video server marketplace. Up until the last few years, the focus was ...

StarFabric is a multiprotocol switched interconnect technology for board-to-board and chassis-to-chassis connectivity that provides more scalability and flexibility for designers of next-generation ...

As data bandwidths escalate, the conventional-PCI shared-bus technology is too slow for many high-performance I/O applications. PCI Express promises to extend the life of PCI by providing a low-cost, ...

Computing and communications technologies have advanced along with changing markets, bringing these technologies together at the silicon, board and system levels. The compute industry has evolved ...

System performance bottlenecks have gradually moved from the processing portion of high-speed applications to the input/output section. Parallel shared-bus architectures failed to provide data at the ...

During the past few years, various technologies have vied for dominance as the preferred next-generation computer interconnect. The resultant claims and counterclaims from various camps have confused ...

Logic analyzers have long been the tool of choice for debugging complex timing and finding elusive functional problems. For parallel bus architectures, they offer time-correlated analysis of hundreds ...

CATALOG DESCRIPTION: Parallel computer architecture and programming models. Message passing and shared memory multiprocessors. Scalability, synchronization, memory consistency, cache coherence. Memory ...

Fig 1. Designers can parallel identical fixed-ratio isolated bus converters to create the high-power array in an intermediate bus architecture. Fig 2. This array of identical fixed-ratio isolated bus ...
