Abstract
Warp is a programmable systolic array machine developed by Carnegie Mellon. Currently two 10-cell machines are operational at Carnegie Mellon, with each cell being a 10 MFLOPS programmable processor. These machines have been used in a diverse range of applications, including navigation for robot vehicles, signal processing, and medical image processing, and as a tool for vision research. For these applications, Warp is typically several hundred times faster than the VAX 11/780. General Electric, which is Carnegie Mellon's industrial partner for the Warp project, is building at least eight additional Warp machines.
