This book examines the issues relevant to the design of vector and
pipelined computer systems using the Cray X-MP/24. The purpose of
the book is to help the readers arrive at a deep understanding of
how vector processing systems really work. These insights will be
useful to the scientist who would like to obtain maximum
performance from a vector machine, to the computer science student,
and to the compiler writer. The book can also be used to supplement
a regular textbook in a graduate or senior level course in computer
architecture. The book looks at the overall design of the Cray X-MP
and then explores the operation of the machine by looking at
detailed timings of various instructions and code segments. It
examines such issues as instruction issues and buffering, handling
of jump instructions, use of registers to hold intermediate
results, memory conflicts resulting from vectorization, optimal
vectorization of multiple statement loops, and synchronization
problems with multi-tasking. Detailed Gantt charts are provided to
guide the reader through the timing issues.
