O Sistema Multiprocessador ACP no CBPF
Abstract
The Centro Brasileiro de Pesquisas Físicas in collaboration with Fermi National Laboratory is participating on the development of multiprocessors systems which is easy to use and low cost effective to solve many computational problems in High Energy Physics and in others fields. CBPF in the moment has a system with 21 processors and is developing basic and application software for the ACP in collaboration with others institutes.
