    SIGGRAPH 1989

    Meiko are leading vendors of Massively Parallel Supercomputers with over 200 sites in the United States and Europe. The Meiko Computing Surface extends seamlessly in size from 4-64 nodes in a Sun workstation, to 1000 plus nodes as a standard UNIX stand alone supercomputer.

    SIGGRAPH 1988

    Meiko supplies the Computing Surface, a parallel supercomputer seamlessly spanning a performance range of one Megaflop to Gigaflops and incorporating semiconductor memory of one Megabyte to Gigabytes. Meiko will demonstrate systems at SIGGRAPH specially configured for demanding graphics applications, particularly rendering.

    SIGGRAPH 1987

    Meiko will exhibit its COMPUTING SURFACE, a 4000 MFLOPS true MIND parallel processor with over 300, 32-bit, 10-MIP RISC-like processors with floating point co-processors. It can have any number of processors, with no upper limit, in an amorphous topology. Configuration is set by an electronic switching network, accommodating the needs of the application.

    SIGGRAPH 1986

    Meiko manufactures the Computing Surface parallel processor system using 32-bit 10MIP RISC- like processors — from one to 157 processors. System topology is reconfigurable and allows users to assign processors to fit algorithm, e.g., ray-tracing and image processing. The system can be used as a processor farm with micro VXX or PC front-end. High resolution graphics with individual processors, 1024 x 1024 x 24 bits.
