Supercomputing Solutions Inc, the San Diego company that was created to take over the development work that had been being done by Concurrent Computer Corp on the Princeton University Navier-Stokes computer, a 64-bit parallel processor, has run out of operating capital and is unable to pay interest on $1.3m of notes due to the company’s founders. It is closing its San Diego facility and laying off its entire technical staff. It lost $3.2m in the third quarter and had been counting on an $11m renewal of a Department of Defense contract to develop a 1 TebaFLOPS computer for the Direct Solution of Turbulence.
