Summary
The CDC CYBER 200 series computer provides computational capability measured in the hundreds of mflops (millions of floating point operations per second). This capability is due to its vector processing hardware. The goal of this paper is twofold:
-
1.
To illustrate this hardware capability by a selected set of syntactic kernels, and
-
2.
To provide an introduction to the applicability of vector processing to some basic algorithms of numerical linear algebra.
