CSP, Inc.
("CSPI") was incorporated in 1968 and is based in Billerica,
Massachusetts, just off Route 128 in the Boston computer corridor. To
meet the diverse requirements of its industrial, commercial, scientific
and defense customers worldwide, CSPI and its subsidiaries develop and
market IT integration solutions and high-performance cluster computer systems.
 CSPI operates in two segments:
- the Systems segment and
- the Service and System Integration segment .
The Systems segment consists primarily of CSPI’s MultiComputer Division (the "MultiComputer
Division") which designs and manufactures specialty, high-performance computer signal processing
systems for the aerospace & defense markets. The MultiComputer Division’s products are known as
multicomputers or cluster computers, which use multiple microprocessors linked together in a
specialized network to achieve very high performance processing capabilities. Our MultiComputer
systems utilize "blades" (self-contained, high-density computer boards) to achieve a high level of
compute processing per-cubic-foot-per-watt. The blades and other components that make up the system
are housed in a ruggedized chassis, designed to withstand physically demanding environments such as
those found on board a ship or airplane. In addition, CSPI’s MultiComputer products are designed to
operate in environments that have low power, cooling and space requirements. These systems are used
on land, and in airborne and shipboard platforms for high-speed digital signal processing in
radar, sonar, and surveillance applications. The MultiComputer Division sells all its products through its
own direct sales force in the United States and via distributors and authorized resellers in the Asia-
Pacific region, India, and Europe.
The Service and System Integration Segment includes the computer maintenance and integration
services and third-party computer hardware and software value added reseller businesses of
our Modcomp subsidiary ("Modcomp"). Modcomp is a wholly owned subsidiary of CSPI, which
operates in the United States, Germany and the United Kingdom. Modcomp markets and
sells its products through its own direct sales force.
