Description
It is anticipated that the needs of scientific computation will dramatically outpace the performance of general-purpose supercomputers over the next decade. These needs will, however, be addressed by an emerging class of parallelprocessing supercomputers (PPS). The Princeton University Navier-Stokes Computer (NSC) is a PPS geared toward simulating complex flows. It has a projected speed and capacity two orders of magnitude beyond that of current supercomputers. The architecture of the NSC and a discussion of a working prototype is presented.
