An exemplary computing device, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, can include a processor module with a plurality of processors and a plurality of module output ports associated with each processor. Each of the processors can include a plurality of chip communication channels (CCCs). The CCCs can be coupled to the module output ports of a first processor and can be coupled to other processors in the plurality of processors. The present disclosure additionally provides for a local mode or cooperative mode configuration. A local mode provides for a four-way connection between four processors and a cooperative mode provides for an eight-way connection between eight processors.
