Scientific paper

We compare the performance of three parallel supercomputers executing a bispectrum estimation code used to remove distortions from astronomical data. We discuss the issues in parallelizing the code on an 8-processor shared-memory CRAY Y-MP and a 1024-processor distributed-memory nCUBE machine. Results show that elapsed times on the nCUBE machine are comparable to those on the CRAY Y-MP. Execution of the nCUBE was more than 40 times faster than that of a single processor CRAY-2 resulting in more than 50 times better cost performance. Cost performance on the nCUBE is more than 25 times better than an 8- processor CRAY Y-MP.
