Abstract:
The SUPRENUM project was a major effort in Germany to develop a national expertise in massively parallel processing both at the hardware and software level. We review the development of SUPRENUM and introduce the twelve later papers in this proceedings that deal in more detail with SUPRENUM. Taken together these papers present an overview of the project goals, its historical development, successes and failures of the project, and indicate ways in which the project has influenced MPP developments elsewhere. GENESIS was a European ESPRIT project focused on massively parallel processing. It included both hardware and software architecture aspects. GENESIS was a natural development from SUPRENUM and used the Suprenum-1 machine as its primary hardware platform. We briefly discuss GENESIS and introduce the nine papers in this volume that represent the GENESIS effort. GENESIS has had a significant effect
