Brietech writes "Ever wanted to own your own supercomputer? This guy recreated a 31-processor SIMD Supercomputer from the early 1980's called the "Non-Von 1" in an FPGA. It uses a "Non-Von Neumann" architecture, and was intended for extremely fast database searches and artificial intelligence applications. Full-scale models were intended to have more than 1,000,000+ processors. It's a cool project for those interested in "alternative" computer architectures, and yes, full source code (Verilog) is available (along with a python library)."
