Multicellular architecture: tests and development

In this article we will talk about the development of architecture and hardware, show the tests carried out and evaluate the results and prospects for further development. If this is your first time hearing about multicellular architecture, you can familiarize yourself with it in the previous articles:

• "What is a multicellular processor?"

  
  
  
  
  

• "Multiclet R1 - first tests"

  
  
  
  
  

• "LLVM-based C / C ++ compiler for multicellular processors: to be or not to be?"

  
  
  
  
  

• "Development of a C compiler for a new multiclet neuroprocessor"
