The paper presents a paradigm for inter-processor connection control in message passing parallel systems. The paradigm is based on permanent inter-processor connections created under centralized control as a residual effect of data communications. It enables creation of temporal infrastructure of permanent interprocessor connections, which is next used for dynamic mapping of execution of communication instructions. The proposed paradigm assumes co-existence of four types of connections, which correspond to the basic communication models: packet switching and circuit switching in the synchronous and asynchronous versions. The corresponding system architectural features are discussed including structures of system components and connection setting principles for different communication models.
