Abstract
In this chapter, re-arranging and recoding of a sample program, (the numerical solution of the two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) differential equations), is discussed for the vector computers CRAY-1S, CDC-CYBER 205 and HITACHI’s S9 with Integrated Array Processor (IAP). For comparison the same program is “parallelized” for the parallel computers ICL’s Distributed Array Processor (DAP) and the Heterogeneous Element Processor (HEP) of DENELCOR. For a better understanding of the parallelized versions corresponding to the DAP and HEP, the interested reader requires a knowledge of the special FORTRAN-language versions (cf. |74|, |144| and |101|, |191|, respectively).
