We describe APEmille, the latest generation of the APE parallel processors. This machine, an evolution of the APE100 concept, is very efficient for LGT simulations as well as for a broader class of applications requiring massive floating point computations. Several new features characterise this evolution. In particular local addressing capabilities are added to all computing nodes.

Abstract
We describe APEmille, the latest generation of the APE parallel processors. This machine, an evolution of the APE100 concept, is very efficient for LGT simulations as well as for a broader class of applications requiring massive floating point computations. Several new features characterise this evolution. In particular local addressing capabilities are added to all computing nodes. APEmille also exhibits a higher degree of integration with a network of workstations acting as a global host system. An APEmille system in the Teraflops range will be completed in three-four years. The architecture proposed in this paper is being currently simulated and evaluated. © 1995 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
