Self-Timing and Event-Driven Systems

Victor I. Varshavsky,

Professor, Computer Logical Design Laboratory

We are studying:
• the optimization strategy for resource sharing in massively parallel and distributed systems, trying to attain the global maximum in computer performance with limited resources, such as common memory, channels, etc.
• using data-controlled incorporated delays for producing the signals of transient process completion in the cases when the variations of transient process duration are determined by the sets of input signal values.
• the design of a speed-independent communication channel based on a pipeline token-ring architecture including channel organization, protocol and syntax-driven implementation of the channel protocol controller.
