3D-Grafik und Transputer: Die Parallelisierung von MiraShading, Sabrina und Miranim

Erfahrungen bei der Übertragung und Parallelisierung eines großen Programmsystems

  • Conference paper
Parallele Datenverarbeitung mit dem Transputer

Part of the book series: Informatik-Fachberichte ((INFORMATIK,volume 272))

Zusammenfassung

Transputer sind keine neuen Mikroprozessoren mehr. Im Vergleich zu anderen Prozessorfamilien gibt es jedoch extrem wenig Portierungen von Software von anderen Systemen. Aus Gründen, die über das Thema dieses Artikels hinausgehen, sind Transputer-Systeme immer noch weitgehend auf hoch spezialisierte Inhouse-Anwendungen, Forschung und die Meß- und Regeltechnik beschränkt.
