CPS615 - Overview of Computer Architectures

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science on Fall Semester 97. Foils prepared 19 September 1997

Summary of Addons which lists all addon files pointed to in foilset
This is a SINGLE file Containing all Foils in nonIMAGE (i.e. HTML) form
This contains all WebWisdom links preceded by those referenced in this foilset
This contains an Index of Foilset Suitable for Printing (There is no easy way of Printing all foils -- just the index)
This just contains Title of Foilset and Links
We describe the simple nature of parallel machines like the nCUBE2
Technologies include conventional, superconducting and Quantum systems but the former dominates
Sequential architectures are dominated by memory (cache) issues
Vector, SIMD MIMD are classic architectures
There is a growing interest in distributed metacomputers
Special purpose machines are typically not so successful
The details of networks is not as important as it used to be!
