Record 4 2015-01-05

English

Subject field(s)
  • Life Cycle (Informatics)
  • Artificial Intelligence
CONT

The hardware and software are really parts of the same design, and the same mathematical approach needs to apply to both. Some of the current papers describing highly parallel architecture do not have the rigor of the HOS technique.

OBS

See MPP, Massively Parallel Processor and Connection Machine.

CONT

Massively parallel architecture. Some modern supercomputers have thousands of simple processors. Complex mathematical tasks are split up into thousands of tiny sub-tasks, and each sub-task is given to a single processor. For instance, when modelling a weather system or chemical reaction, each processor can simulate the movement of a molecule or group of molecules. When modelling nuclear reactions, each processor can act out the movement of a sub-atomic particle.

Key term(s)
  • shake-and-bake programming

French

Domaine(s)
  • Cycle de vie (Informatique)

DEF

Architecture mettant en œuvre simultanément un grand nombre de processeurs qui concourent à la résolution d'un même problème.

CONT

Les possibilités offertes par les circuits intégrés VLSI [...] permettent désormais de penser en termes d'architectures massivement parallèles comportant des milliers, voire un million de processeurs d'une puissance de l'ordre de celle d'un tout petit micro-ordinateur. Ce qui importe ce n'est plus désormais le nombre de processeurs, mais bien plus leur organisation et la façon dont ils échangent l'information.

DEF

a system specification tool which, unlike other such tools, precisely checks the logic of the specification. It automatically generates the required code.

CONT

The HOS system can generate any application and is particularly useful with highly complex logic. The HOS software that generates code is separate from the software that allows the logic of the application to be specified and built.

JOIN is an example of a relational operation. Many query languages employ relational operations and sometimes employ a relational data base.

OBS

JOIN, as used here, is a relational algebra term of old standing in common use in data-base circles. It has no relationship to the HOS control structure "JOIN". These terms have entirely different meanings.

Subject field(s)
  • Computer Hardware
CONT

An HOS machine. A machine could be built to execute the JOIN, INCLUDE and OR primitives. It would thus have a much narrower instruction set than today's computers. The code generated would relate directly to the machine [and] because the machine has a narrow instruction set it could be made much faster.

DEF

a machine designed specifically for Higher Order Software. The hardware and controlled software should be one integrated design, built together with control maps which represent both hardware and software design and allow trade-offs between them to be explored.

Data-base experience has shown that thorough data analysis should precede application building. The application designers then need a simple technique for navigating through the data model. Using HOS(Higher-Order Software), we can provide defined structures for data-base navigation.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Systems Analysis (Information Processing)
CONT

The HOS mathematical axioms relate to the three primitive control structures JOIN, INCLUDE, and OR. These structures, however, are often confining. The user can be provided with other control structures which themselves are built out of the primitive structures. Employment of these other structures is automatically verified for correct use. HOS provides four commonly used nonprimitive control structures : COJOIN, COINCLUDE, COOR, CONCUR.
