A high performance graphics system for the CRAY-1

Abstract: This paper describes the design and implementation of a state-of-the-art interactive vector graphics system connected to the CRAY-I supercomputer.The primary design goal for this graphics system is that it support large hydrodynamic computer programs used in weapons design calculations. The interactive use of these programs requires displays consisting of up to 20,000 vectors, extensive interaction tools, and highbandwidth conu~unication rates. The major system components selected for this project were an Evan… Show more
