A Survey of Selected Algorithms Used in Military Applications from the Viewpoints of Dataflow and GaAs

Abstract

This is a short survey of ten algorithms that are often used for military purposes, followed by analysis of their potential suitability for dataflow and GaAs, which are a specific architecture and technology for supercomputers on a chip, respectively. Whenever an algorithm or a device is used in military settings, it is natural to assume strict requirements related to speed, reliability, scale, energy, size, and accuracy. The two aforementioned paradigms seem to be promising in fulfilling most of these requirements.
