The paper describes a parallel Special Purpose Computer (SPC) for the simulation of interacting particle systems. It works as an interactive desk-top system with a user-friendly interface; its performance is comparable to that of a supercomputer. Due to its low-cost, personal availability and dedicated software tools, it acts like an application specific environment: two applications involving Condensed Matter Physics and Fluid Dynamics are presented.

Abstract
The paper describes a parallel Special Purpose Computer (SPC) for the simulation of interacting particle systems. It works as an interactive desk-top system with a user-friendly interface; its performance is comparable to that of a supercomputer. Due to its low-cost, personal availability and dedicated software tools, it acts like an application specific environment: two applications involving Condensed Matter Physics and Fluid Dynamics are presented.File in questo prodotto:
