PCI-based systems that today provide multiprocessor capability use a mechanism called non-transparent bridging. Simply put, a transparent PCI-to-PCI bridge isolates two PCI bus segments, offering the ...

Multiprocessor RTOSs may even include utilities to configure customized interprocessor-communication-management engines, because managing such communication is unique to each design implementation.
