Abstract

The ASP (Associative String Processor) is a massively parallel fault tolerant associative processor designed for the implementation of extensible parallel processing systems. This paper describes the latest status on the WASP3 processor, which is an implementation of an ASP processor array, comprising a large monolithic device (5.5 cm×5.5 cm) laminated with an MCM-D High Density Interconnect (HDI) substrate to provide signal and power connectivity
