Zusammenfassung:The present invention is directed to a computing system which contains a plurality of subunits. Each subunit contains a computing subcomponent and a subunit supervisor subcomponent. The subunit supervisor component monitors functions of the subunit and output signals corresponding to the monitored functions. The plurality of subunits are contained within a housing. The housing contains a housing supervisor subunit which receives the output signals of each of the plurality of subunits. The supervisor subunit outputs the accumulated signals to an input/output device for monitoring the plurality of subunits and for sending commands to each subunit.
