CONCURRENT COMPUTER CORPORATION WINS MISSILE COMPUTER SYSTEM AWARD FROM THE UNITED KINGDOM'S DEFENCE RESEARCH AGENCY.


OCEANPORT, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 10, 1995--Concurrent Computer Corporation today announced that it has received a major order from the United Kingdom's Defence Research Agency in Farnborourgh, Hampshire, England, for the supply of a three-processor 200 megahertz One million cycles per second. See MHz.

MegaHertz - (MHz) Millions of cycles per second. The unit of frequency used to measure the clock rate of modern digital logic, including microprocessors.
 (MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc. ) version of its industry leading MAXION(TM) multiprocessor system.

The award also includes the supply of Professional Services including training, integration and interfacing services.

This MAXION multiprocessor system will be interfaced to a high-performance real-time hardware-in-the-loop missile simulation facility at the Defence Research Agency. The system will be used to evaluate the performance of existing guided missiles and to perform research and development into future systems.

Concurrent's MAXION multiprocessor system, with its unique crosspoint switch, provides multiple and independent high-speed point-to-point connections between independent ports on the switch. Via the crosspoint, multiple processors, each with local memory and multiple I/O buses, can be connected in a compact system which eliminates the performance bottlenecks associated with traditional bus architectures. The MAXION multiprocessor system provides a deterministic and high-performance solution especially for the real-time responses demanded by hardware-in-the-loop missile simulation.
