High Performance Computing: Research and Practice in Japan

Divided into two sections, it begins with a study of Vector Supercomputing--an expanding area of interest for research investment in U.S. and Japanese computer industries. The first section covers such relevant topics as architectures and systems, languages and compilers, applications and algorithms, and users. The second section focuses on Parallel Supercomputing and presents an in-depth discussion of the machines developed under the Japanese QCDPAX and SIGMA-1 Projects plus current projects on parallel processing.
