  • Multiprocessor digital data processing system
    Patent number: 6694412
    Abstract: A multiprocessor digital data processing system comprises a plurality of processing cells arranged in a hierarchy of rings. The system selectively allocates storage and moves exclusive data copies from cell to cell in response to access requests generated by the cells. Routing elements are employed to selectively broadcast data access requests, updates and transfers on the rings.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 28, 2001
    Date of Patent: February 17, 2004
    Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.
    Inventors: Steven J. Frank, Henry Burkhardt, III, Linda O. Lee, Nathan Goodman, Benson I. Margulies, Frederick D. Weber
