1960年夏季,控制数据公司(C.D.C)开始了CDC 6600计算机的设计工作,1964年9月生产出了第一台计算机。在该机研制的初期,就明确了这样一个问题,即要想得到一台先进的计算机,有二条主要途径:强迫电路特性(brute force circuit)和平行操作。 本文介绍在实现CDC6600计算机的平行操作时所作的某些考虑。在开始设计该机器时,高速硅晶体管问世了,这是一件极其重要而巧遇的事情,它克眼了以前在电路性能上所存在的若干困难,为电路性能的一大提高奠定了基础。
In the summer of 1960, Control Data Corporation (C.D.C) began the design of the CDC 6600 computer and produced its first computer in September 1964. In the early days of the aircraft development, it was clear that there was two main ways to get an advanced computer: forced brute force circuit and parallel operation. This article describes some considerations that you have had in implementing the CDC6600 parallel operation of your computer. When it came to designing the machine, high-speed silicon transistors were introduced. This was an extremely important and coincidental event. It glimpsed some of the previous difficulties in circuit performance and laid the foundation for a major improvement in circuit performance.
