Special Purpose Computer Architectures for High Speed Optimisation

This paper discussed two computationally intensive optimisation algorithms for 0-1 integer programs, namely simulated annealing and branch and bound. It then describes an application specific computing platform designed to accelerate their performance. The paper justifies the general approach and gives details of the algorithms.

The process of residue division has certain interesting properties and quite possibly has applications in respect to special problems. Unfortunately, the residue division process is not a substitute for normal division. It appears that the only way in which division can be effected in the residue code is by the utilization of techniques similar to those employed for division in a consistently w...

A high performance system for molecular dynamics simulation of biomolecules using a special-purpose computer.

GRAPE (GRavity PipE) processors are special purpose computers for simulation of classical particles. The performance of MD-GRAPE, one of the GRAPEs developed for molecular dynamics, was investigated. The effective speed of MD-GRAPE was equivalent to approximately 6 Gflops. The precision of MD-GRAPE was good judging from the acceptable fluctuation of the total energy. Then a software named PEACH...
