  • Abstract

    Systolic arrays are a family of parallel computer architectures capable of using a very large number of processors simultaneously for important computations in applications such as scientific computing and signal processing. This article gives a general description of systolic arrays, illustrates the idea by two simple examples, lists some applicable computations, and describes fine-grain interprocessor communication in systolic arrays.
