Abstract
The ICL Distributed Array Processor (DAP) is an SIMD array processor containing a large, 2-D array of bit serial processing elements. The architecture of the DAP makes it well suited to data processing applications where searching operations must be carried out on large numbers of data records. This paper discusses the use of the DAP for two such applications, these being the scanning of serial text files and the clustering of a range of types of database. The processing efficiency of the DAP, when compared with a serial processor, is greatest when fixed length records are processed.
