DESCRIPTION:VHSIC and the ETA-10: The First CMOS and Only Cryogenically Coo
 led Supercomputer\n\nSupercomputer Progress Until Today\n\nDavid Bondurant
 \, Retired PE\n\nPikes Peak Life Member Affinity Group Chair\n\nRegion 5 L
 MAG Coordinator\n\nControl Data Corporation (CDC) was the World’s Leadin
 g Supercomputer company for 40-years. Starting as classified group of Navy
  code breakers during WWII building tube-type computers\, CDC was building
  the fastest computers by the 1970s in the Twin Cities.\n\nBy the early 19
 80s\, CDC needed a dramatic leap forward to stay ahead of Cray Research\, 
 and several Japanese supercomputer companies. They creates ETA Systems to 
 build a computer 10 times more powerful than any of the day\, the ETA-10.\
 n\nDuring the 1970s\, fielded military computer technology was failing to 
 keep pace with rapidly evolving commercial technology. In 1980\, the DoD l
 aunched an aggressive technology development called Very High Speed Integr
 ated Circuits (VHSIC) to rapidly develop 1.2 micron and 0.5 micron semicon
 ductor and advanced computer-aided design tools. Across town from ETA Syst
 ems\, Honeywell Solid State Electronics was developing leading edge CMOS a
 nd packaging technologies under a VHSIC contract.\n\nThe presentation will
  describe how Honeywell and ETA Systems worked together to create the ETA-
 10\, The First CMOS and Only Cryogenically Cooled Supercomputer.\n\nthen d
 escribe how CMOS Supercomputers have evolved until today.\n\nSpeaker(s): D
