Research Initiation: Cost-Effective Plasma Simulation via Special-Purpose Computers

低成本等离子体专用计算机的设计 模拟正在进行中。 该项目的主要目标 是设计和评估能够高效执行 等离子体粒子模拟程序 该项目的第二个目标 就是用今天的技术来制造这样的计算机。 一个更具成本效益的粒子模拟系统将有助于 物理学家对等离子现象的研究。 结果 可以扩展到更高的维度和其他领域 具有类似的计算要求。

The design of special purpose computers for cost-effective plasma simulation is being addressed. The primary goal of the project is to design and evaluate computers that efficiently execute plasma particle simulation codes. A second goal of the project is to build such computers using today's technologies. A more cost-effective particle simulation system will aid physicists in their investigation of plasma phenomena. Results could be extended to higher dimensionality and to other domains with similar computation requirements.
