Mitchell) Newsgroups: comp.sys.transputer Subject: New transputer Keywords: H1 T9000 transputer Message-ID: <1093@keele.keele.ac.uk> Date: 19 Apr 91 08:37:42 GMT Organization: University of Keele, England Lines: 21 In this Thursday's (18th April) "computer" Guardian I read, under the banner, "Transputing"... "Inmos has finally unveiled the T-9000 Transputer processor, formerly known by it's code name, H1. It claims a peak performance of 200 mips and 25 megaflops (million floating point operations per second). The sustained performance is 115 mips/18 megaflops. The T-9000 is thus about 10 times faster than the T-800, with which it is compatible. The new chip will be used as an embedded controller (inside photocopiers etc), in communications and parallel processing/ supercomputing applications."
