Abstract: The routing logic means (RL) first selects, based on a route reference number included in the internal routing label (RCA,TCP) and associated to a cell to be routed by it, at least one set including a number of routing groups each of which itself includes a number of outlets. The routing logic means then secondly selects one routing group per selected set of routing groups and finally also selects from each such selected routing group an outlet to which a copy of the above mentioned cell is transferred. 
     In this way a distribution of (copies of) cells to arbitrarily chosen output ports of a switching node including such a routing logic means can be effected both for point-to-point as for multicast connections. 
     In a particular embodiment, the first selection is done via a routing memory (RM) whose memory locations (MSK) are addressed via the route reference number. The content of this memory location is then interpreted by a selection means (SEL) which identifies the routing groups included in the set and performs the second selection randomly selecting any one of the groups included in the set.

Abstract: A scheme for controlling a congestion in the communication network, capable of realizing a recovery from the congestion state by the operation at the lower layer level for the communication data transfer alone, without relying on the upper layer protocol to be defined at the terminals. In a communication network including first and second node systems, a flow of communication data transmitted from the first node system to the second node system is monitored and regulated by using a monitoring parameter. On the other hand, an occurrence of congestion in the second node system is detected according to communication data transmitted from the second node system, and the monitoring parameter used in monitoring and regulating the flow of communication data is changed according to a detection of the occurrence of congestion in the second node system.

Abstract: A micro-processor or micro-controller of a module design and adapted for low power is described. 
     Each of the modules is addressed and controller by the CPU in the same way. All assembler instructions and all address modes can be applied to each module. Also, all 16 registers of the CPU are identical in character and can be used with each of the seven address modes. 
     One such device is available in a 4K Byte or 8K Byte ROM, EPROM or RAM version (for prototyping). The high precision 12-bit A/D converter (which can be expanded to 14 bits without additional components) is combined with an LDC drive to output measurement results; the FET driver to switch on loads; the 8-bit Timer/Counter; several I/O ports which accept interrupts; and a watchdog which guarantees safe operation during unexpected events. 
     Somewhere up to 16 nested interrupt levels (7 used in the first product) are active during all Processor/Power modes to capture various external events or timer results. 
     A powerful set of only 51 assembler instructions and 76 address modes allow convenient and fast programming. 
     The CPU can be programmed with minimal effort and a small number of code lines and is extremely economical with ROM space (the number of code lines for a task is a measurement of the programming time).
