The Connection MachineMIT Press, 1985 - 190 Seiten "The Connection Machine "describes a fundamentally different kind of computer. It offers a preview of a parallel processing computer that Daniel Hillis and others are now developing to perform tasks that no conventional, sequential machine can solve in a reasonable time.W. Daniel Hillis is a founder of Thinking Machines Corporation where he is engaged in building connection machines as a significant step toward real thinking machines. "The Connection Machine" is included in the Artificial Intelligence series, edited by Patrick Winston, Michael Brady, and Daniel Bobrow. |
