Computer Based Image and Signal Processing Analysis Facility

This facility is dedicated to image processing and signal processing as related to the design and implementation of measurement systems that support research and development. At its core is a supercomputer capable of 200 million 64-bit floating-point operations per second. This facility has unique peripherals. They include a one gigabyte per second Local Area Network which links the computer to high performance graphics workstations for visualization; a 14.4 million byte per second, digital, video tape recorder for the importing and digitization of images; and a million byte per second analog-to-digital converter for the digitization of analog data.
