Researchers at the University of Illinois-Urbana will purchase a                hypercube multiprocessor.  The equipment will be used for research in           computer science, including the following three research projects:                                                                                               (1) Design and implementation of sophisticated computer-aided design           tools for VLSI that can run efficiently on the Hypercube                        multiprocessor.  Specifically, tools will be developed for cell                 placement, wire routing, timing, logic and fault simulation, circuit            extraction from mask layouts, and automatic test generation.                                                                                                      (2) Intelligent heuristic searches for artificial intelligence                applications.  Strategies for parallel processing of heuristic searches         on the Hypercube will be developed.  Also to be considered will be              program restructuring for parallel evaluation of logic programs.                                                                                                 (3) Performance evaluation of the Hypercube system.
