 CDC STAR-100 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In general organization, the STAR was similar to CDC's earlier supercomputers, where a simple RISC-like CPU was supported by a number of peripheral processors that offloaded housekeeping tasks and allowed the CPU to crunch numbers as quickly as possible.
In the STAR, both the CPU and peripheral processors were deliberately simplified, however, to lower the cost and complexity of implementation.
An updated version was later released as the CDC Cyber 203, and then a greatly improved Cyber 205, but by this point the Cray-1 was on the market with considerably higher performance.

 CDC Cyber - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In CDC lingo, the term "byte" referred to 12-bit entities (which coincided with the word size used by the peripheral processors).
The STAR was an entirely new 64-bit design with vector processing instructions added for high performance on math tasks.
The scalar processor was relatively slow in comparison to the CDC 7600.

 Sun.Star Pampanga - CDC security officers face raps
This move, according to the Yats management, is harassment stating that the CDC police arrested Locher after being implicated by the two suspects to have masterminded the theft.
Locher claimed that he was humiliated when the CDC security officers subjected him to fingerprinting, adding that he was not even notified about the crime he allegedly committed.
He was detained for several hours at the CDC detention cell, but was later released after CDC president and CEO Emmanuel Y. Angeles and CDC Director Benigno Ricafort were informed about the blunder of the CDC police.

 Impact of CDC STAR-100 Computer on Finite Element Systems   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
A study is made of the impact of the projected major hardware and software features of the CDC STAR-100 computer on the overall organization and design of components of finite element structural analysis systems.
The effective utilization of the STAR capabilities in finite element systems requires: (1) The consistent use of modular design concepts in all phases of the finite element system; and (2) the design of the different modules and processors to exploit the STAR pipeline processing capabilities.
The paper concludes with two examples showing the anticipated gain in speed over the CDC 6600 to be obtained by using the STAR streaming capability.

 [No title]
The Star came with an unprecedented million words of magnetic core memory (8 MB), which literally filled a quarter of the building in which it was located.
However, this performance boost, roughly a factor of 10 from the CDC 7600 to the Cray-1, came at the cost of a restrictive programming model in which large numbers of identical operations had to be performed in sequence.
One must remember, however, that, unlike the earlier case of the Star, working with these machines was agreed by nearly all to be pioneering the future of supercomputing, and therefore of a special value to the community.
