Title :
Generating movie-quality animated graphics with massively parallel computers
Abstract :
The author begins by discussing massively parallel computers and hypercube theory. Issues such as single-instruction multiple-data (SIMD) versus multiple-instruction multiple-data (MIMD) and 32 versus 64 bits are discussed. Present and future aspects of animated graphics with massively parallel computers are also discussed
