Abstract

This paper discusses the primary design objectives of the German supercomputer project SUPRENUM and their realization. The SUPRENUM system is a loosely-coupled, massively parallel multiprocessing system with a hierarchical structure. Its design is oriented towards large-scale problems in numerical simulation and scientific supercomputing. The major components of the system — hardware, system software, programming system, and applications — are being developed in parallel so that an integrated system will be available in 1989, at the time at which the first phase of the project is scheduled to be completed.

Die diesem Bericht zugrundeliegenden Arbeiten wurden mit Mitteln des Bundesministers für Forschung und Technologie (Förderkennzeichen ITR 8502D0) gefördert. Die Verantwortung für den Inhalt liegt jedoch allein beim Autor.
