Abstract

Computer numerical simulation is widely applied in engineering and social fields. It has shown great value in these fields. Small scale simulation applications can be processed on the traditional simulation computer, but with the size of problem increasing, sequential processing cannot meet the requirements. Dynamic real-time simulation and super real-time simulation require high performance simulation computers. In this paper we first analyse the structure of a classical simulation computer AD-100 which was developed by ADI Inc., then a novel structure for a simulation computer which adopts the MPP technology is proposed. At the end of this paper an experimental result is given to test the feasibility of parallel simulation processing
