The paper describes a nodal radial muliprocessor control network (MCN) most efficient in solving the problems of reliability, survivability, expandability and resource reallocation as well as in meeting maximum performance requirements for control systems. The network capacity increases with its size. Application of pipeline controllers may lead to even several times higher capacity as compared to that of conventional networks. At the same time the suggested network architecture and protocols are quite easy to implement in our conditions.
