From Master Foilset for HPC Achitecture Overview CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- Fall Semester 98. by Geoffrey C. Fox *
Various HPCC Resource Lists for Foil 2
This presentation came from material developed by David Culler and Jack Dongarra available on the Web
See summary of Saleh Elmohamed and Ken Hawick at http://nhse.npac.syr.edu/hpccsurvey/
We discuss several examples in detail including T3E, Origin 2000, Sun E10000 and Tera MTA
These are used to illustrate major architecture types
We discuss key sequential architecture issues including cache structure
We also discuss technologies from today's commodities through Petaflop ideas and Quantum Computing
