Execution of the NEC2 electromagnetic moment method code on the Inmos T800 Transputer

摘要

The NEC2 electromagnetic moment method code has been successfully transferred into the personal computer environment. The Inmos T800 Transputer was used to execute the code. The analysis of a 12 element log-periodic antenna was used as a benchmark to compare execution times. Execution on the Transputer was 1.5 times faster than on a DEC microVAX computer, and comparable to the speed of a DEC VAX785 computer.
