Abstract

Jericho is a reactive computing engine capable of supporting advanced high user-intensity applications systems. It has four primary architectural characteristics: 1. A user-dedicated computing environment 2. Direct execution of high-level programming languages 3. High bandwidth communication between user and system 4. High bandwidth communication between user-support machines and the other machines the task environment. Each of these architectural components will be described further, followed by a discussion of the Jericho hardware.
