Sorting Networks and Their Applications
No full texthttps://kent-islandora.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/node/17403/87330-thumbnail.jpgTo achieve high throughput rates today\u27s computers perform several operations simultaneously. Not only are I/O operations performed concurrently with computing, but also, in multiprocessors, several computing operations are done concurrently. A major problem in the design of such a computing system is the connecting together of the various parts of the system (the I/O devices, memories, processing units, etc.) in such a way that all the required data transfers can be accommodated. One common scheme is a high-speed bus which is time-shared by the various parts; speed of available hardware limits this scheme. Another scheme is a cross-bar switch or matrix; limiting factors here are the amount of hardware (an m × n matrix requires m × n cross-points) and the fan-in and fan-out of the hardware.</p

39. 1968, Ship Naming Ceremony of the Merle M. McCurdy
No full texthttps://kent-islandora.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/mccurdy_gallery/3/thumbnail.jpg“A Fruitful Life and Much Loved” ~ Epitaph in memory of Merle as inscribed on his gravestone. George M. Steinbrenner, then President of the American Ship Building Company, later owner of the New York Yankees, and friend of Merle, announced that he would name a ship for his fallen friend, the “Merle M. McCurdy”. A significant and honored event, it was the first ship on the Great Lakes Fleet to be named for an African American. Steinbrenner stated the following on the occasion: “We feel this is a most appropriate gesture, and one of which the entire Great Lakes industry should be proud. This ship should serve to remind many people, that this ideal which McCurdy exemplified is in fact a real one and that it is our duty to see that such opportunities are always available regardless of race, creed, or color.” Photo features from left to right Bernie Stuplinski, Merle’s former Chief Assistant, Theodore Garrison, Brenda (McCurdy) Garrison, Merle Garrison, Cathleen Drew, Sharon Drew, Rosie McCurdy, and Myrna (McCurdy) Drew.
