Abstract

Systems and methods form and control a supercomputer based upon a parallel processing architecture such as a Howard cascade. A graphical user interface allows a user to interact with one or more virtual power centers of the supercomputer facility. A plurality of processing nodes self-organize into one or more virtual power centers. The processing nodes utilize overlapped input and output for improved communication.
