View, CA Lines: 24 Xref: watmath net.arch:751 net.space:3524 NASA is announcing the solicitation of research proposals for the Goddard Space Flight Center's Massive Parallel Processor [MPP]. The MPP consists of 128 bit serial processing elements on a side processor array [16K total PEs]. There is a 128 bit wide data path to a VAX 780 [VMS] front end and disk subsystem. It is programmed using a parallel MPP Pascal. The MPP was orginally designed with weather satellite image processing, but other applications and research are possible. The purpose of this solictation is to find these applications and determine new concepts such as algorithms and the like. For further information contact: Ai C.
