Abstract

Advancing technology and declining costs have led to a sharp increase in the number and variety of small computers in use. Because small computers are readily suited for many real-time applications, a great deal of work has been directed toward simplifying the interface between the computer and its peripherals. Hardware interrupting capability and a specially designed I/O bus are required for peripheral device interfacing in a real-time environment and such things as direct memory access, data channels, and multilevel hardware and software interrupt capability are common. These machines tend to be parallel, synchronous computers with a relatively simple architecture.
