Both set a hardware goal (teraflop for HPCC and petaflop for JNAC) to focus activity but in each case systems and applications were main justification
|
Both couple applications with software and architectures in multidisciplinary teams with multi-agency support
|
HPCC was dominantly research
-
JNAC is roughly 50-50 research and development
|
HPCC inevitably developed MPP's and transferred parallel computing to computing mainstream
-
JNAC's challenge is memory hierarchy and will transfer understanding of this to mainstream independent of parallelism
