Abstract

A raw computer resource capable of one billion floating point operations per second will have multiple parallel and/or segmented functional units to obtain such a speed. The system programmers, software writers and users are faced with the task of writing operating systems, compilers and application programs to utilize such a capability efficiently. The software problem of giving the user access to the available power of the machine is discussed.
