Problems Involved in the Organization of Computations in a Uniform Rearrangeable Control Computer System

Abstract Consideration is given to organization of parallel computation in the control computer system where the task is broken down into parallel-sequential segments (branches) depending on informational and logical conditions of program execution, As many single-type system control resources may be given to a program as there are current program branches. Each program branch may get as many single-type computational resources as there are ready-for-execution various or single-type instructions in the branch at the time. Free resources may be given to another program. Therefore, in addition to the conventional control levels (control of programs and instructions), the system has two more levels for program branch control and operator control. The joint application of the concepts of rearrangeability and parallelism enables effective adaptation of system hard- and software to different requirements of involved real-time control.
