This section describes the hardware and software configuration of the Intel Paragon at NAS.

The Paragon is a 227-node i860/XP-based distributed memory multiprocessor with a mesh interconnection network. It supports the message-passing programming model with the NX communication library. It will eventually replace the NAS iPSC/860 (hypercube).
