Three-dimensional board-to-board free-space optical interconnects and their application to the prototype
Abstract:
A prototype multiprocessor system using three-dimensional board-to-board free-space optical interconnects is constructed for the first time to our knowledge. In the system, 64 processing units form a three-dimensional mesh processor network with the help of bidirectional board-to-board free-space optical interconnects. A theoretical analysis shows that the three-dimensional board-to-board freespace optical interconnects effectively solve common interconnection problems such as wiring congestion, signal delay, and clock skew. The prototype system, COSINE-III, is confirmed to work well as a multiprocessor system. The system is also shown to be easy to extend to a larger and more flexible system.

Bus Impedance Matrix
In the first circuit, all machine voltage sources are short-circuited, leaving only the prefault voltage source at the fault location. The positive-sequence bus impedance matrix can be determined by solving the nodal equations,...
Semiconductors
Metals such as copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), or lead (Pb) have low resistivity and feature conduction bands that are either not fully occupied or overlap with the valence band, making a bandgap non-existent. This allows electrons in the highest energy levels of the valence band to easily transition to the conduction band upon gaining...
