Foil 1 Initial Findings of the Algorithm/Application Working Group -- PAW 96 April 23 1996

From Summary of Working Groups at PAWS and PetaSoft Meetings PAWS(Mandalay Beach) and PetSoft(Bodega Bay) -- April 23 and June 17-19,96. by Geoffrey C. Fox
Based on eight presentations, we could make a clear assessment only on GRAPE.
None of the designs is yet defined in sufficient quantitative detail to verify suitability on algorithms and applications of interest.
Due to the greatly different applications proposed by the various designs, is difficult to compare the systems.
There are some omissions in the proposed point designs -- some other possible designs are worth studying.
