Abstract

Abstract : During the third year of the award period, the Computer Science Department of the University of Rochester concentrated on (1) operating systems, debugging support, and performance monitoring for parallel computation, (2) systems utilities for large-scale MIMD (multiple instruction stream, multiple data stream) computation, and (3) applications in active vision. This research produced internal reports, as well as some exportable code several demonstration systems. Implementation of Psyche, a new operating system for large shared- memory non-uniform memory access time computers has begun. The BBN Butterfly Parallel Processor was not applied to low-level vision; instead a parallel- pipelined special-purpose device, the Datacube MaxVideo system, was integrated into the laboratory environment. The vision laboratory was also enhanced by a robot arm that positions and moves the three degree-of-freedom, two-camera robot head. Work was begun on an integrated, heterogeneously parallel system using the Butterfly, the MaxVideo, and other local computers to do complex visuo-motor tasks. Keywords: Parallel processors, Computer vision, Butterfly computer.
