Applications of the inner product computer

Abstract
Recently much interest has been expressed in the idea that future improvements in computer speed will be due primarily to architectural innovations as opposed to improvement in the characteristics of components (i.e., logic circuits, delays, memories, cycle times, etc.). In view of this it is not surprising that the current generation of “super computers” (i.e., the ILLIAC IV, the STAR 100, and the ASC) all exemplify the use of new architectures to achieve great increases in computing speeds. In this paper yet another new architecture is proposed - the inner product computer4. Like the ILLIAC IV it is a “special purpose” processor which is intended to be used in conjunction with a general purpose (i.e., host) computer.
