By this method, data are fed to the cells of a systolic processor and results are obtained instantly.Some theoretical and algorithmic questions which arise in the design of hardware and software for systolic processing are considered. Special attention is devoted to the complexity of VLSI, complexity of algorithms, parallel algorithms, relations between graphs of algorithms and graphs of processors, parallel programming languages, and the use of systolic algorithms for vector programming.The book is unique for its inclusion of a library of systolic algorithms for solving problems from twelve branches of computer science, and will be useful for designers of hardware and software for parallel processing. |

It bas put common sense back n'y serais point aile.' where it belongs, on the topmost shelf next to Jules Verne the dusty canister labelled 'discarded nonsense' . Eric T. Bell The series is divergent; therefore we may be able to do something with it O. Heaviside Mathematics is a tool for thought. A highly necessary tool in a world where both feedback and nonlineari- ties abound. Similarly, all kinds of parts of mathematics serve as tools for other parts and for other sci- ences. Applying a simple rewriting rule to the quote on the right above one finds such statements as: 'One ser- vice topology has rendered mathematical physics .. .'; 'One service logic has rendered computer science .. .'; 'One service category theory has rendered mathematics .. .'. All arguably true. And all statements obtainable this way form part of the raison d'ctre of this series. |
