FastCluster 3000 SERIES
FastCluster 3000 SERIES computing solutions integrate the Freescale 8641D Multicore general
purpose processor (GPP) and Myricom’s 10-Gigabit Ethernet Myri-10G clustering
technology on a VXS platform to deliver optimal balance between overall system performance,
interoperability, and flexibility. These systems are targeted at high performance DOD applications
where space, power, weight and cooling is at a premium.
The 3000 SERIES includes:
- the StarGate Multi-Core PowerPC AltiVec VXS payload,
- the IO-Gate high-speed data streaming payload,
- VXS-M16 and VXS-M2E switch modules,
- 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fabric on VXS
(using the VXS-P14 Pass Through Module),
- and Myri-10G clustering technologies.
FastCluster 3000 SERIES systems are available in air-cooled and SprayCool® versions, to be followed by enhanced MIL-SPEC
rugged VPX platforms with VITA 46/48 packaging.
The FastCluster 3000 SERIES Software
provides an integrated and flexible development and run-time environment enabling users to quickly integrate complex
applications on their embedded cluster.
The 3000 SERIES Software implements an open architecture based upon industry standard layered components. This
approach promotes productivity and code reuse at the application layer by leveraging the best currently available
Development Tools, Run Time Libraries and standard API's to develop embedded real-time applications.
Several options are offered to address a wide variety of requirements including:
- WindRiver's Workbench open device software development suite
for VxWorks and Linux (for the PowerPC with AltiVec),
- VSIPL object oriented middleware,
- the CSPI Industry Standard Signal Processing Library
- and MPICH-MX over Myri-10G clustering fabric.
