Design of the Tera MTA integrated circuits
M. Howard, A. Kopser · 2002
The Tera MTA (Multi-Threaded Architecture) computer system is a scalable shared memory multiprocessor implemented in semi-custom GaAs ICs. This paper gives an overview of attributes of the Tera MTA architecture that influenced the chip design. It then describes the IC technology selection, design methodology, and yield enhancements.
