Abstract :
The author describes the geometric arithmetic parallel processor (GAPP) processing element, the array of processors and its control, the system into which any array is embedded, the interface to external data sources and data sinks, and the software development environment. Typical applications are then discussed. The GAPP cell, chip, array, systems and module are described
