The inaugural presentation for the fall UTME seminar series
will held on Tuesday, October 6th./1987 in MC252 (Mechanical
Engineering) at 1300hrs. (1:00pm). The topic is on the
latest architectural advances for minisupercomputers.
The Multiflow Trace Series Computers:
Trace Scheduling and VLIW Architectures
By: Dr. Joseph Fisher, Vice-President and Founder
Multiflow Computer Incorporated
Multiflow recently introduced uniprocessor machines that
greatly outperform similarly priced vector and
multiprocessing minisupercomputers on big, real world
applications. Multiflow accomplishes this via a new
architectural advance, VLIW (Very Long Instruction Word) and
a software-first Trace Scheduling compilers. This technology
has the advantage of speeding up the whole program and is
transparent to the programmer. Thus the speed advantage is
available to all users without special training or problem
manipulation. The Trace Scheduling/VLIW combination now
offers engineers and scientists the most cost-effective
alternative for high speed computing.
