Abstract
A computer bus structure includes a plurality of separate bus segments on a mother board. Plugging in of each of a plurality of interface boards automatically connects the right-hand portion of a particular bus segment to the left-hand portion of an adjacent bus segment so that a local bus of the needed length is created from the separate bus segments by the plugging of a processor board and a plurality of interface boards into successive adjacent connector slots, respectively, of the mother board. Insertion of processor boards into a particular connection slot of the mother board prevents the two bus segments adjacent thereto from being connected.
