  • Abstract
    The emerging generation of high-performance computers for scientific, engineering, and real-time applications based on parallelism and gains in VLSI is described. The machines already in use or to be available soon are briefly discussed. Training of personnel to use these computers is viewed as a barrier to progress.<>
