Foil 5 Details of GEMCI -I

From Computational Science and HPCC Issues for GEM GEM Working Group Meeting -- December 5 98. by Geoffrey C. Fox


Computational infrastructure involves link of geographically distributed observations and computation
  • Seismic sensors, SAR etc.
Special Purpose Computers (such as GRAPE in Japan) for O(N2) particle dynamics could be used in Green's function approach to equation solvers.
  • These have 100 times performance of "conventional parallel machines" but maybe there are much larger algorithmic improvements to be gained which require classic parallel computers
