Cray’s Legacy - Computer Developer's Ideas Thrive
The Gazette, November 13, 2006
Although he died a decade ago, supercomputer developer Seymour Cray’s legacy
lives on through the technology he developed at SRC Computers, Inc. The Colorado
Springs-based company has spent more than $60 million to bring the power of a
supercomputer to a much broader market.

Are FPGAs a Disruptive Technology for HPC?
HPCwire, February 24, 2006
HPC is always keen to exploit innovation if it provides real performance gains,
but are FPGAs the next disruptive technology to deliver for HPC?
Reconfigurable Processing Design Suits UAV Radar Apps
UAV-based radar electronics require supercomputing performance in a compact
space. A reconfigurable computer architecture offers the compute density to fit
the bill.
COTS Journal, October/November 2005
Engineers at the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) and SRC Computers
demonstrate the performance gain of a two-dimensional Synthetic Aperture Radar
(2-D SAR) backprojection algorithm running on SRC’s Compact MAP™ processor
architecture compared to a MATLAB and C implementation of the algorithm.
SRC Code; 'Tis a Far, Far Better Compiler
FPGA & Programmable Logic Journal, July 2005
The author examines researchers and engineers from two distinct camps with
distinct goals attacking the same technical challenge from two different
directions. The two camps meet at the FPGA.
Application Defined Processors
Linux Journal, December 2004
This article explains RC, examines SRC systems that implement RC, and shows the
performance advantage RC provides over traditional microprocessors.
High-Flying Computer Processing
Homeland Science & Technology Journal, November 2004
SRC has been awarded a development contract by the AFRL that addresses a
long-standing challenge of creating a powerful miniaturized computer system for
use on-board UAVs. The resulting mobile computer is expected to perform 96
Gflops with more than 6 Gbytes/s of direct sensor I/O bandwidth in a single
computer weighing as little as 10 pounds.
