Abstract
The HypRa hardware design is based on a multi-computer with homogeneous and powerful nodes with a high degree of node isolation, interconnected by a multipath symmetric communication network. The nodes are built from inexpensive, commercially available, standard components instead of specially designed technology. The nodes are interconnected into a hypercubic topology. Most of the error detection, masking and repair are done in the software servers. The HypRa design philosophy gives the advantage of low hardware cost and high degree of scalability.
