SOFTWARE SOL N66604-95-R-H108 DUE 110695 POC Contact E.M. MEDEIROS
Contracting Officer at (401) 841-2442 X282 FAX: (401) 841-4820 The
Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Newport, anticipates a Firm
Fixed Price (Supply) contract with Bolt, Beranek and Newman of
Cambridge, MA, for the following: 0001 TC/F10 Processor Nodes, 13 each.
0002 Expansion Rack for item 0001, 1 each. 0003 pSOS Real Time Software
for item 0002, 1 each. SALIENT CHARACTERISTICS: As a minimum, Processor
Nodes must be capable of: --Efficient use and reuse of globally shared
memory between the processing and Input/Output elements. --PowerPC 604
microprocessor as its core with ability to execute four instructions
per clock tick; ability to execute 320 million instructions per second
(MIPS); 80Mhz clock speed; near term capability of upgrading 320 MIPS
to 480 MIPS and ability to achieve 320 and 480 MFLOPS. --Expansion
capability on the board for an additional 604 chip required to increase
speed by 50% improvement per board. --Ability to achieve 720 MFLOPS per
board. --Ability to concurrently move data through memory, work on data
sets from other processors, move Input/Output through the machine, all
without slowing down the computational ability. --Must be designed to
support a second processor chip which can be plugged into the board
when the OS, nX, is modified to support two processors/node. Nodes must
support independent Input/Output. COMPATIBILITY REQUIREMENTS: Must be
compatible with existing Government equipment - BBN Parallel Processor
TC2000. Must be compatible with existing Government source code. FOB
Destination at NUWC Division, Newport. Delivery required 90 days after
award. BBN is the developer and manufacturer of the TC2000 Parallel
Processor (existing Govt. equipment) and there are no
