Abstract
Caltech uses parallel computers for a variety of large-scale scientific applications. It has acquired commercial parallel computers, some of which have performance that rivals or exceeds that of conventional, vector-oriented supercomputers. A new project has been started that builds on experience with concurrent computers and attempts to apply Caltech methods to the simultaneous use of parallel and vector supercomputers at four institutions that will be connected by a 800 Mb/s wide-area computer network. Distributed supercomputing experiments will be carried out on this testbed.
