Abstract

An efficient vector-processing technique is proposed; it is based on a novel concept of multipipeline networking, which is generalized from the techniques of pipeline chaining and systolization. The authors also present the design principles of pipeline nets and provide programming, compiling and run-time techniques for converting scientific programs into pipeline net implementations. Performance analysis of the pipeline net is provided with projected performance of various Livermore loops implemented with pipeline nets of various sizes.
