The impact of microprocessors on continuous simulation

With the advent of low cost microcomputer hardware the possibility now exists for the development of systems of parallel microprocessors. For simulation purposes the system of processors may take a form similar to that of an analog or hybrid computer with one processor performing an integration, another a multiple variable summation, etc. This paper presents a possible configuration for such a system and discusses briefly some problems to be resolved as well as some suggestions for multiprocessor integrations.
