SEMINAR ANNOUNCEMENT
Computational Research and Tehnology Branch
SPEAKER: Cleve Moler
Intel Scientific Computers
Beaverton, Oregon
TOPIC: Matrix Computation on the Intel Parallel Computer
ABSTRACT: The Intel iPSC is a new, large scale scientific computer with an
MIMD architecture, 32, 64 or 128 nodes, a hypercube connection topology, a
total of up to 64 megabytes of RAM and a capacity of several million
floating point operations per second. LINPACK and EISPACK are widely used
subroutine packages for solving various problems involving matrices on
sequential computers. In this talk, we will first describe the iPSC, then
describe LINPACK and EISPACK, and finally discuss how the sequential matrix
algorithms and software can be modified to effectively utilize the new
parallel machine.
