Does anyone know if anyone is working on bringing a VLIW machine to market?
Multiflow had a great technology. Aslo, can anyone give me some solid
background references on VLIW architecture (esp. the memory architecture)? All
the arch. books I've seen make no mention of VLIW.
John,
1) no comment on anyone bringing a VLIW to market (Alliant's isn't)
2) thanks for the MFCI plug, it was a great technology and it deserved
more user time than it got
3) we wrote two arch papers while there, the first in IEEE Transactions
on Computers, Aug. 1988, the second in 1990's Supercomputing Conf.,
and Chandra Joshi wrote a paper on the memory system arch that will
appear in this year's Parallel Processing Conf. in Chicago.
4) Actually the newer arch books. like Patterson/Hennessy do have a
section on VLIWs.
