1982年7月6日,日本富士通公司宣布超高速计算机(巨型机)FACOM VP-100/200开发成功,并于1983年3～4季度接受订货。超大型机领域过去基本上是由美国计算机厂家所独占的,以这次富士通公司打入国际市埸为契机,日美计算机企业间的竞争,将出现新的局面。 FACOM VP的高挡机“VP-200”运算速度高达每秒5亿次浮点运算,它充分利用了资源重复的概念,包括多存貯体和多操作部件。我们认为,该机发挥了美国巨型机CRAY-1的设计思想并加强了某些功能,充分发挥了作为向量处理的特点。对以前用FACOM M-380超大型机需要1500小时的复杂运算,用FACOM VP-200只需30小时即可处理完毕。
July 6, 1982, Fujitsu Ltd. of Japan announced the successful development of the FACOM VP-100/200 supercomputer (supercomputer) and ordered in 3Q-4Q 1983. In the past, the area of supercomputers was essentially dominated by the U.S. computer manufacturers. Taking this opportunity for Fujitsu to enter the international market, the competition between Japanese and U.S. computer companies will see a new situation. FACOM VP’s high-end “VP-200” operation scales up to 500 million floating-point operations per second, leveraging the concept of resource duplication, including multiple banks and multiple operating components. In our opinion, the aircraft has played a role in the design of the CRAY-1 in the U.S. supercomputer and has strengthened some of its functions to the fullest extent as a vector processing feature. Former FACOM M-380 super-mainframe takes 1500 hours of complex computing, with FACOM VP-200 only 30 hours to be completed.
