An Introduction to Programming the Meiko using CsTools
The PCC supports a Meiko CS1 which has 20 T800 transputers and 2 i860 processors. This machine
is used by a number of researchers to develop parallel algorithms. It is also used by undergraduate
and postgraduate classes to learn the principles of parallel programming using message
passing. The course material which is available can be given in a variety of forms from a short half
day introduction (1 hour lecture plus 2 hour practical) to a 2 day course course covering a detailed
explanation of the Meiko hardware and software. These courses are available on request.
