Preliminary Report on Results of Matrix Benchmarks on Vector Processors.

Abstract

This preliminary report presents the results of running full matrix benchmarks on the CDC STAR 100, the Cray Research Cray-1, the Texas Instruments ASC (1-pipe and 4-pipe), the IBM 370/195, and the Amdahl 470V/6. An analysis is performed on timing results to correlate measured results with those predicted from manufacturer-supplied data. This benchmark effort is part of a study to measure the effectiveness of vector processors for (direct) solution of large sparse sets of simultaneous equations, and to develop new algorithms appropriate to classes of computer architecture.
