Abstract: Units of a data processing system intercommunicate on ring connections of shift registers. A message placed in one shift register stage is advanced from stage to stage until it is removed at a destination stage or at an intermediate stage. Several rings are interconnected in a toroidal arrangement so that a message can be transferred at an intermediate stage from one ring to an adjacent ring. Logic is provided for advantageously routing the message between the initial stage and the destination stage.
