Hypercube concurrent computation and virtual time for robotic application

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5397985
The programmatic activities of CESAR, the Center for Engineering Systems Advanced Research, are briefly reviewed. In the concurrent computation area, critical issues related to the control of intelligent machines using hypercube ensembles are outlined. The mapping of task graphs exhibiting structural irregularity and nonlocal communication patterns is discussed and the results of an application to the solution of robot inverse dynamics are given. Finally, the design of a Virtual Time Intelligent Machine Operating System (IMOS/VT) for the ORNL/NCube ensemble computer is presented.
