Modeling Electroplating Rinse Systems Using Equation-Solving Software, Andrew C. Hillier, Clifford W. Walton
Modeling Electroplating Rinse Systems Using Equation-Solving Software, Andrew C. Hillier, Clifford W. Walton
Andrew C. Hillier
Microcomputers are finding application in a vast array of academic and industrial settings, but are under-utilized in the electroplating industries. An often overlooked tool for computer simulation, for example, is equationsolving software. Such programs can predict the performance of a process system from basic mathematical relations without requiring the operator to have extensive knowledge of sophisticated programming and numerical solution techniques. A model of a multi-tank counter-current rinse system is described, then simulated with this software, and the results compared to actual plating facility rinse data, showing the excellent predictive qualities of this approach.

Pthomas: An Adaptive Information Retrieval System On The Connection Machine., Robert Oddy, Bhaskaran Balakrishnan

This paper reports the state of development of PThomas, a network based document retrieval system implemented on a massively parallel fine-grained computer, the Connection Machine. The program is written in C*, an enhancement of the C programming language which exploits the parallelism of the Connection Machine. The system is based on Oddy’s original Thomas program, which was highly parallel in concept, and makes use of the Connection Machine’s single instruction multiple data (SIMD) processing capabilities. After an introduction to systems like Thomas, and their relationship to spreading activation and neural network models, the current state of PThomas is described, including …
