Abstract
A description is given of a interconnect called OPTIMUL. The central feature is an optical processor-memory channel, which allows simultaneous access of a memory chip, both with respect to all bits in the chip, and, in tightly coupled systems, with respect to all processors. The authors present a simulation analysis of the performance of a specific multiprocessor based on this technology.<>
