High Performance Processors for Space Environments: A Subproject of the NASA Exploration Missions Systems Directorate "Radiation Hardened Electronics for Space Environments" Technology Development Program

Implementation of challenging Exploration Systems Missions Directorate objectives and strategies can be constrained by onboard computing capabilities and power efficiencies. The Radiation Hardened Electronics for Space Environments (RHESE) High Performance Processors for Space Environments project will address this challenge by significantly advancing the sustained throughput and processing efficiency of high-per$ormance radiation-hardened processors, targeting delivery of products by the end of FY12.

The Space Cube Architecture -- A Road Map for the Future

Concepts of using modular computer system processing units using today's technology are described. Topics covered are: reasons for modularizing, reasons for stacking modules, module packaging & inter- module packaging, interconnection between modules, space-bus require- ments, gateway features, general architecture, single string and dual string architecture (and examples), and triple module redundancy.

Space-Cube: A Flexible Computer Archictecture Based on Stacked Modules

A flexible computer architecture based on stacked interchangeable modules is ideally suited to implementation using stacked multichip modules. Its use of all sides of a module stack allows simple, single-bussed modules, together with a gateway module, to be easily configured into a variety of more complicated architectures.
