The authors analyze the computation and communication performance of the Transtech PARAstation/i860 multiprocessor, a distributed memory system built of nodes with an Intel i860 processor as computational engine and a transputer T805 handling communications. The efficiency of the i860 computing processor is analyzed using various basic vector operations and the matrix multiplication, in Fortran language; the communication speed is then measured against the distance between the nodes for both i860 and transputer processes.

Abstract
The authors analyze the computation and communication performance of the Transtech PARAstation/i860 multiprocessor, a distributed memory system built of nodes with an Intel i860 processor as computational engine and a transputer T805 handling communications. The efficiency of the i860 computing processor is analyzed using various basic vector operations and the matrix multiplication, in Fortran language; the communication speed is then measured against the distance between the nodes for both i860 and transputer processes.File in questo prodotto:
