BIB-VERSION:: CS-TR-v2.0 ID:: STAN//CSL-TR-90-428 ENTRY:: November 08, 1994 ORGANIZATION:: Stanford University, Computer Systems Laboratory TITLE:: SUB-NANOSECOND ARITHMETIC TYPE:: Technical Report AUTHOR:: Flynn, Michael J. AUTHOR:: DeMicheli, Giovanni AUTHOR:: Dutton, Robert AUTHOR:: Wooley, Bruce AUTHOR:: Pease, R. Fabian DATE:: May 1990 PAGES:: 26 ABSTRACT:: The SNAP (Stanford Nanosecond Arithmetic Processor) project is targeted at realizing an arithmetic processor with performance approximately an order of magnitude faster than currently available technology. The realization of SNAP is predicated on an interdisciplinary approach and effort spanning research in algorithms, data representation, CAD, circuits and devices, and packaging. SNAP is visualized as an arithmetic coprocessor implemented on an active substrate containing several chips, each of which realize a particular arithmetic function.
