Preliminary design for POPSY - a POlyProcessor SYstem
Malcolm C. Harrison · 1973
This paper outlines the objectives and preliminary design for an experimental POlyProcessor SYstem (POPSY) which we hope to build at the Courant Institute. The motivation for this work is our belief that the dramatic reduction in hardware costs which we expect to result from large-scale integration (LSI) will affect the architecture of computer systems in a significant way. In particular, we expect there to be the following main results
