I'd noticed that you've specified a fairly general-purpose processor logic core in your design, omitting a multiplier from this for now. Have you considered designs exposing multiple programmable processors, or do you think this would be feasible for an initial (or perhaps later) design?
There seems to be a fair amount of interest in using commodity hardware for solving highly parallel problems, apparently including an earlier post on this list, and since graphics seems to consistently fall into this class, it seems natural to wonder how general the design could be. The question is mostly motivated by working on some fairly parallel problems for a little while; I've put together a summary of some relevant ideas below, but it is a very general and non-technical draft, and I suspect that others will have better, more complete ideas than these. http://auricle.dyndns.org/agc.html _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
