General-Purpose Image-Data Program

Image Database computer program, IBASE, is general-purpose imagery-information system. Use accomplished either by commands or through hierarchy of menus. Analytical capabilities of IBASE include contigency tables, image filtering (low-, high-, and band-pass), proximity maps, clustering, histograms, regression, slope calculations, scaling, and Boolean manipulations. Also has interface to Cheshire Image Classification expert system. Written in FORTRAN 77.

Innovative architectures for dense multi-microprocessor computers

The results of a Phase I Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) project performed for the NASA Langley Computational Structural Mechanics Group are described. The project resulted in the identification of a family of chordal-ring interconnection architectures with excellent potential to serve as the basis for new multimicroprocessor (MMP) computers. The paper presents examples of how computational algorithms from structural mechanics can be efficiently implemented on the chordal-ring architecture.
