  • Patent number: 8578131
    Abstract: This invention is involving the creation of a sub-sequence net (hereafter briefly as Sub SN). The Sub SN is a kind of sequence net encapsulation that includes sub-routine structure of N+1 single machines. Based on the fact that the sequence net call instruction of sequence net call function in the environment of sequence net computers of this invention is a single machine instruction which can call the operation of a Sub SN comprising N+1 branch programs. In N+1 branch programs, the sequence net call instruction calls Sub SN devices and realizes the call of sequence net. In this invention, grade call and sequence call of sequence net are created to meet requirements of random events and ordered events of models.

  • Patent number: 7373481
    Abstract: A Distributed-Structure-based parallel module structure and parallel processing method. One object is to provide a novel sequence-net computer architecture. A parallel operating structure with N+1 independent flow-sequences is created, and the N+1 flow-sequences control independently the distributed token via the sequence-net instructions to realize the parallel operating of module. Wherein N flow-sequences is regular type, a new consistency flow-sequence Sc running independently is composed by consistency tokens. The distributed token connecting among multi-machines support the co-operation running among N+1 flow-sequences.

  • Publication number: 20050273664
    Abstract: This invention relates to an embedding structure of parallel-program created by software and a call of parallel-program. The parallel-program relates to the “sequence-net” in the prior art in the view of programs and includes N+1 parallel-program branch program modules and (data) token structure. Based on a single machine environment of this invention, parallel-program is transformed into a type of structure of parallel-program branch program run in time division mode. Three subroutines for reading data, writing data, and making the consistency for data in the branch programs realize the processing of suspension and ready status of parallel-program branch programs. The running of branch programs is managed by time-division-managing module. An execution process of parallel-program data sequence supports the parallel operations and the embedding of parallel-program modules. The parallel-program structure simplifies the modular structure of time division and produces the resources of N+1th branch program.
