VP2000 series dual scalar and quadruple scalar models supercomputer systems-a new concept in vector processing

摘要

The authors describe the dual scalar and quadruple scalar models of Fujitsu VP2000 series supercomputer systems. These models have unique architectural features and can provide higher throughput for a multijob environment, higher performance for multitasked single jobs, and a more flexible system configuration than conventional multiprocessor systems. Architectural features, analytical performance models, and sample timing measurements are discussed.
