The Texas Instruments Advanced Scientific Computer and Its Application to Numerical Fluid Dynamics Problems.

摘要

This report evaluates both the hardware and software of the Texas Instruments Advanced Scientific Computer (TIASC) at the Naval Research Laboratory in terms of their applicability to numerical fluid dynamics calculations. DTNSRDC users access this computer via an on-site Remote Job Entry Terminal. The 'pipelined' central processor of the TIASC has been found particularly valuable in numerical fluid dynamics work, especially when combined with the graphics capabilities available at DTNSRDC. Several examples of fluid dynamics problems which were successfully solved using the TIASC are given. (Author)
