  • Data distribution network
    Patent number: 5184138
    Abstract: The data distribution network (DDN) improves processing throughputs (eight million bytes per second) whenever high data rates of unsorted data are input to a processing system by combining synethetic (hash) addresses with look-up tables. The DDN includes coarse steering logic, fine steering logic, and assignment logic for partially sorting and filtering data so that subsequent analysis procedures can find the data in a more orderly form. This increase the pulse density handling capability of a processing system without major size and weight impact.
