The role of specialized processors in the NAS program - Retrospective/prospectiveThe Numerical Aerodynamic Simulation (NAS) Program was initiated by NASA to establish a national resource for scientific research and engineering applications of computational fluid dynamics. This paper examines the changing views of the roles of general purpose and special purpose processors in this program in response to changes in technology as well as changes in perceived needs. The time period covered extends from more than 10 years ago, through the present, and concludes with some speculative concepts for the future roles of specialized processors in the advanced NAS system.
