The complete exchange ('all-to-all personalized') communication pattern is at the heart of numerous important multicomputer algorithms. Recent research has shown how this pattern can efficiently be performed on circuit-switched hypercubes. However, on circuit-switched meshes, this pattern is difficult to perform efficiently because the sparsity of the mesh interconnect leads to severe link contention. The authors develop a family of algorithms that proceed by recursively carrying out a series of contention-free exchanges on subdivisions of the mesh. Each member of this family is useful for some range of the parameters: mesh size, message size, startup time, and data transmission and permutation rates. The authors describe the performance of their algorithms on the Touchstone Delta mesh.< >

The structural and electrical properties of cobalt annealed on heteroepitaxial, strained-layer silicon-germanium were studied by transmission electron microscopy, four-point-probe and four-terminal resistor resistivity measurements, and junction diodes. The I50nm thick epitaxial p-Si0.87Ge0.13 was grown by UHV-CVD at 590r.C. Cobalt was deposited by DC magnetron sputtering. The cobalt was rapid-thermally annealed at various temperatures in forming gas. The cobalt film and the SiGe layer reacted, as illustrated by changes in their film thicknesses, and increased interfacial roughness. The roughness and reacted-film thickness increased with increasing temperature. The sheet resistances of the samples were dependant on the anneal temperature and time. Films formed by annealing at 700r.C, 3 min, were 80nm thick, and had 2.8Ω/sq sheet resistivity, corresponding to 20µΩ-cm resistivity. The contact was ohmic, with contact resistivity of l.6×-10-4Ω-cm2. SiGe/ Si heterojunction diodes contacted by the reacted film, containing Co, Si, and Ge, were compared to diodes contacted by aluminum.

The etching characteristics of InAlAs, InGaAs, and InP in citric acid/H/sub 2/O/sub 2/ solutions, and their applications to the fabrication of InAlAs/InGaAs/InP MODFETs are reported. High selectivities of up to 500 and 187 were obtained for InGaAs over InP and InAlAs over InP, respectively. Selectivity values ranging from 2.5 to 25 were achieved for InGaAs over InAlAs with citric acid/H/sub 2/O/sub 2/ solution ratio from 10 to 1. The activation energies for these materials and the etch profiles for a InGaAs/InAlAs/InP MODFET structure are reported. Citric acid/H/sub 2/O/sub 2/ solutions of appropriate ratios have been applied to both mesa etching and gate recessing with good results. These solutions may also be extended to the fabrication of InAlAs/InGaAs and InP/InGaAs heterojunction bipolar transistors.< >

The authors have fabricated and characterized MODFETs on OMVPE (organometallic vapor-phase epitaxy)-grown InAlAs/InGaAs/InP heterostructures. Excellent DC and RF characteristics were obtained. Extrinsic DC transconductance as high as 1020 mS/mm and a unity current gain cut-off frequency, f/sub T/, of 114 GHz were obtained for devices with 0.27- mu m gate-length. An effective saturation velocity of 2.0*10/sup 7/ cm/s was obtained for these devices. These results are shown to be comparable to the best results reported in the literature for MODFETs fabricated in MBE (molecular-beam epitaxy)-grown heterostructures.< >

The nonlinear time evolution of a second-mode instability in a Mach 4.5 wall-bounded flow is computed by solving the full compressible, time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations. High accuracy is achieved by using a Fourier-Chebyshev collocation algorithm. Primarily inviscid in nature, second modes are characterized by high frequency and high growth rates compared to first modes. Time evolution of growth rate as a function of distance from the plate suggests this problem is amenable to the Stuart-Watson perturbation theory as generalized by Herbert.

Taylor-Couette flow, the shear-driven flow between concentric cylinders, exhibits a wide variety of instabilities and modal changes, especially for the case of finite length to gap ratio. The numerical simulations presented here capture many of the experimentally observed features, including the moderately high Reynolds number regime in which temporally aperiodic behavior is seen. The exponential decay of the temporal frequency spectrum of these modes in the simulations indicate such flows possess a low-order chaotic character. In this paper, the spectral collocation methods used in this study are described, select axisymmetric simulations are reviewed, and initial results from three-dimensional unsteady simulations are presented.

A method of efficiently computing turbulent compressible flow over complex two-dimensional configurations is presented. The method makes use of fully unstructured meshes throughout the entire flow field, thus enabling the treatment of arbitrarily complex geometries and the use of adaptive meshing techniques throughout both viscous and inviscid regions of the flow field. Mesh generation is based on a locally mapped Delaunay technique in order to generate unstructured meshes with highly stretched elements in the viscous regions. The flow equations are discretized using a finite element Navier-Stokes solver, and rapid convergence to steady state is achieved using an unstructured multigrid algorithm, Turbulence modelling is performed using an inexpensive algebraic model, implemented for use on unstructured and adaptive meshes. Compressible turbulent flow solutions about multiple-element aerofoil geometries are computed and compared with experimental data.
