array
(foldoc) | array
1. A collection of identically typed data items
distinguished by their indices (or "subscripts"). The number
of dimensions an array can have depends on the language but is
usually unlimited.
An array is a kind of aggregate data type. A single
ordinary variable (a "scalar") could be considered as a
zero-dimensional array. A one-dimensional array is also known
as a "vector".
A reference to an array element is written something like
A[i,j,k] where A is the array name and i, j and k are the
indices. The C language is peculiar in that each index is
written in separate brackets, e.g. A[i][j][k]. This expresses
the fact that, in C, an N-dimensional array is actually a
vector, each of whose elements is an N-1 dimensional array.
Elements of an array are usually stored contiguously.
Languages differ as to whether the leftmost or rightmost index
varies most rapidly, i.e. whether each row is stored
contiguously or each column (for a 2D array).
Arrays are appropriate for storing data which must be accessed
in an unpredictable order, in contrast to lists which are
best when accessed sequentially. Array indices are
integers, usually natural numbers, whereas the elements of
an associative array are identified by strings.
2. A processor array, not to be confused with
an array processor.

1. A collection of identically typed data items
distinguished by their indices (or "subscripts"). The number
of dimensions an array can have depends on the language but is
usually unlimited.
An array is a kind of aggregate data type. A single
ordinary variable (a "scalar") could be considered as a
zero-dimensional array. A one-dimensional array is also known
as a "vector".
A reference to an array element is written something like
A[i,j,k] where A is the array name and i, j and k are the
indices. The C language is peculiar in that each index is
written in separate brackets, e.g. A[i][j][k]. This expresses
the fact that, in C, an N-dimensional array is actually a
vector, each of whose elements is an N-1 dimensional array.
Elements of an array are usually stored contiguously.
Languages differ as to whether the leftmost or rightmost index
varies most rapidly, i.e. whether each row is stored
contiguously or each column (for a 2D array).
Arrays are appropriate for storing data which must be accessed
in an unpredictable order, in contrast to lists which are
best when accessed sequentially. Array indices are
integers, usually natural numbers, whereas the elements of
an associative array are identified by strings.
2. A processor array, not to be confused with
an array processor.

array processor
(foldoc) | array processor
vector processor
(Or "vector processor") A computer, or extension
to its arithmetic unit, that is capable of performing
simultaneous computations on elements of an array or table
of data in some number of dimensions.
The IBM AltiVec (the "Velocity Engine" used in the {Apple
G4} computers) is a vector processor.
Common uses for array processors include analysis of fluid
dynamics and rotation of 3d objects, as well as data
retrieval, in which elements of a database are scanned
simultaneously. Array processors are very rare now (1998).

field-programmable gate array
(foldoc) | field-programmable gate array
(FPGA) A gate array where the logic network can
be programmed into the device after its manufacture. An FPGA
consists of an array of logic elements, either gates or lookup
table RAMs, flip-flops and programmable interconnect
wiring.
Most FPGAs are reprogrammable, since their logic functions and
interconnect are defined by RAM cells. The Xilinx LCA,
Altera FLEX and AT&T ORCA devices are examples. Others
can only be programmed once, by closing "antifuses". These
retain their programming permanently. The Actel FPGAs are
the leading example of such devices. Atmel FPGAs are
currently (July 1997) the only ones in which part of the array
can be reprogrammed while other parts are active.
As of 1994, FPGAs have logic capacity up to 10K to 20K
2-input-NAND-equivalent gates, up to about 200 I/O pins and
can run at clock rates of 50 MHz or more. FPGA designs must
be prepared using CAD software tools, usually provided by
the chip vendor, to do technology mapping, partitioning and
placement, routing, and binary output. The resulting binary
can be programmed into a ROM connected to the FPGA or
downloaded to the FPGA from a connected computer.
In addition to ordinary logic applications, FPGAs have enabled
the development of logic emulators. There is also research
on using FPGAs as computing devices, taking direct advantage
of their reconfigurability into problem-specific hardware
processors.

one-dimensional array
(foldoc) | one-dimensional array
An array with only one dimension; the simplest kind of
array, consisting of a sequence of items ("elements"), all of the
same type. An element is selected by an integer index that
normally starts at zero for the first element and increases by
one. The index of the last element is thus the length of the
array minus one.
A one-dimensional array is also known as a vector. It should
not be confused with a list. In some languages, e.g. Perl,
all arrays are one-dimensional and higher dimensions are
represented as arrays of pointers to arrays (which can have
different sizes and can themselves contain pointers to arrays and
so on).
A one-dimensional array maps simply to memory: the address of an
element with index i is
A(i) = A0 + i * s
where A0 is the base address of the array and s is the size of
storage used for each element, the "stride". Elements may be
padded to certain address boundaries, e.g. machine words, to
increase access speed, in which case the stride will be larger
than the amount of data in an element.

programmable array logic
(foldoc) | Programmable Array Logic
(PAL) A family of fuse-programmable logic
integrated circuits originally developed by MMI.
Registered or combinatorial output functions are modelled in
a sum of products form. Each output is a sum (logical or)
of a fixed number of products (logical and) of the input
signals. This structure is well suited for automatic
generation of programming patterns by logic compilers.
PAL devices are programmed by blowing the fuses permanently
using overvoltage.
Today, more complex devices based on the same original
architecture are available (CPLD's for Complex PLD's) that
incorporate the equivalent of several original PAL chips. PAL
chips are, however, still popular due to their high speed.
Generic Array Logic devices are reprogrammable and contain
more logic gates.

redundant array of independent disks
(foldoc) | Redundant Array of Independent Disks
(RAID) A standard naming convention
for various ways of using multiple disk drives to provide
redundancy and distributed I/O.
The original ("..Inexpensive..") term referred to the 3.5 and
5.25 inch disks used for the first RAID system but no longer
applies. As solid state drives are becoming a practical
repacement for magnetic disks, "RAID" is sometimes expanded as
"Redundant Array of Independent Drives".
The following standard RAID specifications exist:
RAID 0 Non-redundant striped array
RAID 1 Mirrored arrays
RAID 2 Parallel array with ECC
RAID 3 Parallel array with parity
RAID 4 Striped array with parity
RAID 5 Striped array with rotating parity
RAID originated in a project at the computer science
department of the University of California at Berkeley,
under the direction of Professor Katz, in conjunction with
Professor John Ousterhout and Professor David Patterson.
A prototype disk array file server with a capacity of 40
GBytes and a sustained bandwidth of 80 MBytes/second was
interfaced to a 1 Gb/s local area network. It was planned
to extend the storage array to include automated {optical
disks} and magnetic tapes.

systolic array
(foldoc) | systolic array
(By analogy with the regular pumping
of blood by the heart) An arrangement of processors in an
array (often rectangular) where data flows synchronously
across the array between neighbours, usually with different
data flowing in different directions. H. T. Kung and Charles
Leiserson publish the first paper describing systolic arrays
in 1978 [reference?].
Each processor at each step takes in data from one or more
neighbours (e.g. North and West), processes it and, in the
next step, outputs results in the opposite direction (South
and East).
An example of a systolic algorithm might be matrix
multiplication. One matrix is fed in a row at a time from the
top of the array and is passed down the array, the other
matrix is fed in a column at a time from the left hand side of
the array and passes from left to right. Dummy values are
then passed in until each processor has seen one whole row and
one whole column. At this point, the result of the
multiplication is stored in the array and can now be output a
row or a column at a time, flowing down or accross the array.
