Intel公司宣布已为用户提供了首批iPSC并行计算机系列. 据Intel公司报导,iPSC系统是第一批运用大规模并行处理能力的民用计算机。iPSC系列的结构是一种“超立方体”五连结构,这种结构由美国能源部和国防高级研究计划局(DARPA)投资在加里福尼亚理工学院研制的.超立方体结构由多个、独立计算的节点组成,每个节点都有存贮器,通过专用通信通道可与多达七个的其它节点链接,每个计算节点包括一个Intel
Intel Corporation announced that it has provided its customers with the first iPSC parallel computer series, which Intel Corporation reported was the first civilian computer to utilize massively parallel processing capabilities. The structure of the iPSC series is a “hypercube” five-link structure that was funded by the U.S. Department of Energy and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) at the California Institute of Technology. The hypercube structure consists of multiple, independent Computed nodes, each node having memory that can be linked to up to seven other nodes through dedicated communication channels, each including one Intel
