Engineering Research Equipment Grant: Fileserver and Array Processor

建议设立计算设备奖，供犹他大学电气工程系的信号处理小组使用。这个小组由四名教员和大约二十名研究生组成。目前的研究项目包括模拟神经网络、通信网络、语音波段数据信号和图像的数据压缩、信号恢复和正则化、自适应滤波器和频谱估计。该计算机系统将由一个带有浮点加速板的桌面端文件服务器、高分辨率单色监视器和16通道异步线路多路复用器组成。重复的计算将由阵列处理器并行执行，从而大大节省了计算时间。

An award for computing equipment is recommended, for use by the signal processing group in the Department of Electrical Engineering at the University of Utah. This group consists of four faculty members and approximately twenty graduate students. Current research projects include simulated neural networks, communication networks, data compression of voice band data signals and images, signal recovery and regularization, adaptive filters, and spectral estimation. The computer system will consist of a deskside fileserver with floating point accelerator board, high resolution monochrome monitor, and 16- channel asynchronous line multiplexor. Repetitive calculations will be carried out in parallel by the array processor, affording a great savings in computation time.
