This project investigates two design methodologies, dynamic                     systolization and macro-dataflowing, useful in developing                       multiprocessor supercomputers.  The concept of multiprocessor element           systolization is generalized from pipeline chaining implemented in Cray         X-MP.  This technique offers a new network approach to designing                reconfigurable systolic arrays for fast evaluation of compound                  functions and special algorithms.  Macro-dataflowing refers to an               event-driven approach to developing dataflow supercomputers.                    Macro-dataflow is effective to support multitasking with variable               granularity.  The studies include principles of dynamic systolization           and macro-dataflowing, development of functional mechanisms,                    multiprocessing software supports, system reconfiguration techniques,           multitasking benchmark studies through simulation experiments, and              supercomputer performance evaluations.  The major application area              emphasizes the solution of Partial Differential Equation (PDE)                  problems.
