Numerical Aerodynamics Simulation Facility preliminary study, executive summary
nasa, Burroughs Corp. · 2011
The Burroughs Corporation solution to the problem of numeric aerodynamic simulation consists of a computing system designed to meet an effective throughput of one billion floating point operations per second for three-dimensional Navier-Stokes codes. In order to fully appreciate the design, its features, and subtleties, the methodology of the study which evolved this solution and the impact on the processor architecture evolution are described as well as details of the baseline design.
