Abstract :
Benchmark results for the Numerical Aerodynamic Simulation (NAS) Program at NASA Ames Research Center, which is dedicated to advancing the science of computational aerodynamics are presented. The benchmark performance results are for the Y-MP, Y-MO EL, and C-90 systems from Cray Research; the TC2000 from Bolt Baranek and Newman; the Gamma iPSC/860 from Intel; the CM-2, CM-200, and CM-5 from Thinking Machines; the CS-1 from Meiko Scientific; the MP-1 and MP-2 from MasPar Computer; and the KSR-1 from Kendall Square Research. The results for the MP-1 and -2, the KSR-1, and the CM-5 have not been published before. Many of the other results are improved from previous listings, reflecting improvements both in compilers and in implementations.<>
