We propose to build a high-performance, moderate cost optical multicomputer system using commodity Intel PC workstations and previous SBIR-funded optical computing technologies -PicoLight, Inc., VCSEL short wavelength transceivers, with long wavelength transceivers in future development -Eagle Optoelectronic, LLC., deflection routing board, with future direct PicoLight, Inc., VCSEL interfaces into the board Included in the optical computing system will be complete software support from the application to the device driver levels to ensure complete system functionality. Anticipated Benefits and
Potential Commercial Applications: Coupling of PicoLight, Inc., and Eagle Optoelectronic, LLC., technologies while providing additional proof-of-concept within a system framework. System applications include geographically separated battlefield systems and high speed campus-separated network connectivity.
