  • Abstract
    This paper presents a flexible, computer architecture based on stacked interchangeable modules. The architecture is ideally suited to implementation using stacked multichip modules (MCMs). The architecture, by making use of all sides of a module stack, allows simple, single bussed modules, together with a gate-way module, to be easily configured into a variety of more complicated architectures
