(under subclass 200) Subject matter further comprising means or steps for matching timing between the computers.
(1) Note. Classification herein is proper if data (e.g., tokens, semaphores) are transferred between the computers for processing to accomplish synchronization of the computers.
(2) Note. Single clock or timing circuit control of processors, plural clocks, or timing circuits synchronized to control the processors, or operations synchronized to occur on the same clocking or timing cycle is classified elsewhere. See the SEE OR SEARCH CLASS, SUBCLASS and SEE OR SEARCH CLASS notes below.
SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
200+, for transferring data between a plurality of computers even if the transferring employs peripherals, e.g., modems, line adapters.
SEE OR SEARCH CLASS
340, Communications: Electrical, 825+, for controlling one or more devices to obtain a plurality of results by transmission of a designated one of plural distinctive control signals over a smaller number of communication lines or channels, particularly subclasses 825.2+ for synchronizing selective communication systems.
370, Multiplex Communications,
503+, for synchronizing computer transmitted via time channels.
375, Pulse or Digital Communications,
354+, for pulse or digital communications synchronizing.
713, Electrical Computers and Digital Processing Systems: Support,
500+, for generalized processor timing operations.
