ST-100 ARRAY PROCESSOR The ST-100 Array Processor manufactured by Star Technologies, Inc. utilizes a new generation of multiprocessor architecture and advanced VLSI technology to achieve lOO-million floating-point operations per second. This is ten times faster than the computational speeds of many array processors that are often favorably compared to super computers. The ST-100 architecture includes multiple processors for the staging of operations which are essential to the efficient handling of scientific applications in multi-user environments. The ST-100 can be attached to most mid-sized and mainframe computers. Star’s machine was designed in response to demands by scientists and engineers in the disciplines of geophysics, aerodynamic research and development, signal and image processing. A basic configuration of the ST-100 with 512K words of 32-bit main memory and a 48K word data cache is $250,000, including operating and development software, interface and installation (U.S. domestic price). Deliveries are scheduled for the first quarter of 1983. For further information contact Ralph Cook, Director of Corporate Communications, Star Technologies, Inc., One S.W. Columbia, Suite 1212, Portland, OR 97258.
HOSPITAL & HEALTH CARE FACILITIES CATALOG Hospital & Health Care Facilities Catalog from Methods Research Corporation describes and illustrates ways to reduce human error and increase efficiency in hospitals and other health care facilities with magnetic scheduling boards and visual planning systems. Illustrated are applications including nurse staffing, nurse scheduling, physical therapy, admissions and bed control, patient dietary schedule, operating room schedule, blood bank and preventive maintenance for biomedical equipment. Also included is a spin-file rotary filing system which allows a maxhnum of information to be filed in a minimum amount of space. For a free copy of the Hospital 8z Health Care Facilities Catalog, write to Methods Research Corporation, Asbury Ave., Farmingdale, NJ 07727, or phone toll-free 8001631-2233
CAP-PLAN Capintec Systems, Inc. has developed CAP-PLAN, the new system equipped with software capability that will enable it to adapt and interface with any technological developments predicted for the field of computerized oncology management over the next decade. Situationengineered to provide all of the functions inherent in data management, CAP-PLAN functions to maximum efficiency in hospital and clinical situations. Accuracy of calculations and plotted curves as achieved by CAP-PLAN have rated excellent in comparative testing carried out under strict specifications. An important factor in accuracy calculation is that wherever possible, data are derived from actual measurements of customer source units. Further information is available by contacting Capintec Systems, Inc., 6 Arrow Rd., Ramsey, NJ 07446,201/825-9500 or 8001631-3826. To keep you informed of the latest advances in equipment designedfor computerizedradiology,this specialsection is featuredin ComputerizaI RudioZogy. However, mention in this section by no means representsan endorsementof the TheEditor productby this publication.
