- Abstract:
- NON-VON is a very high performance experimental supercomputer, portions of which are now being implemented at Columbia University. If efforts are successful, it should be possible to construct NON-VON machines of various sizes that could ultimately support the extremely rapid execution of a wide range of information processing tasks relevant to the defense community in a highly cost-effective manner. This study briefly sketches the most important aspects of NON-VON architecture, identifies current architectural objectives, and describes the phased hardware implementation plan which has been adopted for the next three years.
