Magaflops from multiprocessors

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7073013
The most recent high-performance computers are vector or array processing machines. With LSI and VLSI technology, a multiprocessor system may provide another alternative. The cost and performance level, however, is clearly dependent on resolving classical multiprocessing difficulties in applying several processors to a single task, i.e., resource contention, task partitioning; and synchronization. Before these issues can be resolved, a high-level language specification is probably unavoidable.
