  • Abstract
    The UF3 is a 4-D hypercube multiprocessor system which is integrated with an innovative programming environment. The architecture of UF3 contains fully programmable nodes which allow use of the system to address problems with arbitrary entities. The self-scheduling programming environment of UF3 uses its bottom-up approach to balance the workload among the processors. The architecture provides the digital signal processor (DSP) community with a high-bandwidth general-purpose accelerator array having a high degree of computational accuracy and a robust programming environment. The principal application of the UF3 is serving the numerically intensive computational needs of the DSP community
