Summary
The Fermilab Computer R D and Theory departments have for several years collaborated on a multi-GFLOP (recently upgraded to 50 GFLOP) system for lattice gauge calculations. The primary emphasis is on flexibility and ease of algorithm development. This system (ACPMAPS) has been in use for some time, allowing theorists to produce QCD results with relevance for the analysis of experimental data. We present general observations about benefits of such a scientist-oriented system, and summarize some of the advances recently made. We also discuss what was discovered about features needed in a useful algorithm exploration platform. These lessons can be applied to the design and evaluation of future massively parallel systems (commercial or otherwise).
