A large class of DOD applications require HPC systems to run simulations based upon complex models demanding the processing power of 100's to 1000's of processing nodes. Memory requirements also increase propor- tionally with the complexity of these problems. Complex real-time signal processing and anal- ysis applications require scalable platforms to meet the requirements of large radar and sonar systems, trainers and simulators. Meeting the challenge of the future, clustering solutions using standard COTS technologies and open Hydra Sonar Systems are incorporated into source software are the best path to offer the Swedish Navy’s Visby class ships hardware and software technology insertion, support and affordable development costs.

  • Ilore: Discovering a Lineage of Microprocessors
    iLORE: Discovering a Lineage of Microprocessors Samuel Lewis Furman Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Computer Science & Applications Kirk Cameron, Chair Godmar Back Margaret Ellis May 24, 2021 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Computer history, systems, computer architecture, microprocessors Copyright 2021, Samuel Lewis Furman iLORE: Discovering a Lineage of Microprocessors Samuel Lewis Furman (ABSTRACT) Researchers, benchmarking organizations, and hardware manufacturers maintain repositories of computer component and performance information. However, this data is split across many isolated sources and is stored in a form that is not conducive to analysis. A centralized repository of said data would arm stakeholders across industry and academia with a tool to more quantitatively understand the history of computing. We propose iLORE, a data model designed to represent intricate relationships between computer system benchmarks and computer components. We detail the methods we used to implement and populate the iLORE data model using data harvested from publicly available sources. Finally, we demonstrate the validity and utility of our iLORE implementation through an analysis of the characteristics and lineage of commercial microprocessors. We encourage the research community to interact with our data and visualizations at csgenome.org. iLORE: Discovering a Lineage of Microprocessors Samuel Lewis Furman (GENERAL AUDIENCE ABSTRACT) Researchers, benchmarking organizations, and hardware manufacturers maintain repositories of computer component and performance information.

    2019 Embedded Markets Study Integrating IoT and Advanced Technology Designs, Application Development & Processing Environments March 2019 Presented By: © 2019 AspenCore All Rights Reserved 2 Preliminary Comments • Results: Data from this study is highly projectable at 95% confidence with +/-3.15% confidence interval. Other consistencies with data from previous versions of this study also support a high level of confidence that the data reflects accurately the EETimes and Embedded.com audience’s usage of advance technologies, software and hardware development tools, chips, operating systems, FPGA vendors, and the entire ecosystem of their embedded development work environment and projects with which they are engaged. • Historical: The EETimes/Embedded.com Embedded Markets Study was last conducted in 2017. This report often compares results for 2019 to 2017 and in some cases to 2015 and earlier. This study was first fielded over 20 years ago and has seen vast changes in technology evolution over that period of time. • Consistently High Confidence: Remarkable consistency over the years has monitored both fast and slow moving market changes. A few surprises are shown this year as well, but overall trends are largely confirmed. • New Technologies and IoT: Emerging markets and technologies are also tracked in this study. New data regarding IoT and advanced technologies (IIoT, embedded vision, embedded speech, VR, AR, machine learning, AI and other cognitive capabilities) are all included. 3 Purpose and Methodology • Purpose: To profile the findings of the 2019 Embedded Markets Study comprehensive survey of the embedded systems markets worldwide. Findings include technology used, all aspects of the embedded development process, IoT, emerging technologies, tools used, work environment, applications developed for, methods/ processes, operating systems used, reasons for using chips and technology, and brands and specific chips being considered by embedded developers.
