Abstract
Interconnection hardware strategies are overviewed in light of loosely-coupled computing systems. Bus issues, arbitration and communication principles are outlined with a direction towards future bus definition and standards. High bandwidth interconnection schemes using multi-port memory controllers and cross-point switches are presented followed by a specific design of a cross-point inter-connection switch. Future research in distributed computing is discussed, providing a comprehensive set of architectural and software issues.
