%X We have investigated the construction of a parallel computer
   using IEEE 1355 high\-throughput low\-latency DS link
   networks and high\-performance commodity processors running
   a standard operating system. In this context a DS Network
   Interface Controller (DSNIC) has been developed. The
   board\[rs]s hardware, controlled by FPGA firmware, together
   with the host software, provides a CSP based message passing
   interface between standard OS processes. This paper
   describes how the design and realisation of the DSNIC
   refleat our aim: low\-latency high\-throughput
   inter\-process communication. We show the benchmark results,
   their analysis, and suggest further performance gains that
   might be possible.
