Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
91 words
A combined computer system comprising: a first group of looped transmission lines (101, 111, 121; 131, 141, 151) consisting of a plurality of looped transmission lines; a second group of transmission lines (102, 132; 112, 142; 122, 152) that consist of at least one looped transmission line and that are arranged to intersect said first group of looped transmission lines; transmission lines that couple said intersecting transmission lines together; and data processing and controlling means (10...15) that control the transmission of data among the transmission lines and that process the data.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
91 words
A combined computer system comprising: a first group of looped transmission lines (101, 111, 121; 131, 141, 151) consisting of a plurality of looped transmission lines; a second group of transmission lines (102, 132; 112, 142; 122, 152) that consist of at least one looped transmission line and that are arranged to intersect said first group of looped transmission lines; transmission lines that couple said intersecting transmission lines together; and data processing and controlling means (10...15) that control the transmission of data among the transmission lines and that process the data.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
24 words
A combined computer system according to claim 1, wherein three or more looped transmission lines are coupled to said data processing and controlling means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
24 words
A combined computer system according to claim 1 or 2, wherein all of said looped transmission lines transmit the data in one direction only.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
33 words
A combined computer system according to any of claims 1 to 3 , wherein the number of building blocks is adapted to be increased or decreased for each of the looped transmission lines.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
27 words
A combined computer system according to any of claims 1 to 4, wherein said data processing and controlling means (10...15) are all constructed in the same manner.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
24 words
A combined computer system according to any of claims 1 to 5, wherein the looped transmission lines describe a figure enveloping a common cube.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
57 words
A combined computer system according to any of claims 1 to 6, wherein each of said data processing and controlling means (300) has means (319) that detects abnormal condition that may occur on the transmission lines connected thereto, and means (323) which, when abnormal condition is detected, changes the manner of selecting the transmission lines coupled thereto.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
38 words
A combined computer system according to claim 7, wherein each of said data processing and controlling means (300) has means which, when abnormal condition is detected, broadcasts the abnormal condition to all other data processing and controlling means.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
38 words
A combined computer system according to any of claims 1 to 8, wherein each of said data processing and controlling means (300) determines the manner of transmitting and receiving the data depending upon the content code of data.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
35 words
A combined computer system according to any of claims 1 to 9, wherein each of said data processing and controlling means (300) further has means coupled to a terminal device (3000) that is connected thereto.
