Research abstract

THIS PROJECT ADAPTS WAYS TO UTILIZE HIGH-PERFORMANCE DIGITALTELEVISION EQUIPMENT FOR HIGH-PERFORMANCE STORAGE OF DIGITALINFORMATION. THIS EQUIPMENT ALLOWS DATA TRANSFER RATES OF BETWEEN 10 MEGABYTES/SECOND AND 120 MEGABYTES/SECOND. STORAGE IN RAM IS AVAILABLE UP TO A FEW GIGABYTES. STORAGE ON MAGNETIC TAPE IS AVAILABLE UP TO 100 GIGABYTES PER REEL OR CASSETTE. PHASE I OF THIS PROJECT WILL DEVELOP DESIGNS FOR HARDWARE INTERFACES TO THIS EQUIPMENT AND ALGORITHMS FORSOFTWARE TO SUPPORT DATA CODING AND ERROR CORRECTION. PHASEI WILL ALSO PRODUCE A SYSTEM ARCHITICTURE DESIGN FOR USING THIS EQUIPMENT IN SEVERAL USEFUL COMPUTER SYSTEM CONFIGURATIONS. THE HARDWARE INTERFACES WOULD BE DESIGNED FOR VME AND ULTRABUS BACKPLANES. THE RESULTS OF THIS PROJECT COULD PROVIDE HIGH DATA-TRANSFERRATE, HIGH-VOLUME, SECONDARY DATA STORAGE FOR SUPERCOMPUTERS.
