High performance computers are centered around the concept of vector processing. The first super-computer generation is single processor oriented. The last trends introduce parallel processing concepts in this field (e.g. Cray 2). In this context, we propose to associate a specialized processor in vector addressing to vector processors. This one takes in charge the whole computation required to access either a contiguous vector, or a sparsed vector controlled by an index vector (gather/scatter operations). An elementary vector access processor is in charge of vector operand fetching with a limited length. A modular cluster will increase length of fetched vectors. |
