x=x(k,t); y=y(k,t); z=z(k,t)
that is working using a double loop, one numeric (for i=0;i<width;i++) and the other one through the parallel calculation of cores both in a single board asset of 16 cores or using a cluster of Parallella boards using boards*16 cores (in theory up to 8 boards, 128 cores).
Using a single board (16 cores) or a cluster (for example my 64 cores cluster) it is possible to run multiple cycles in parallel: multiple of 16 cores if using a single board or multiple of 64 cores in a cluster of boards in order to process the evolution of trajectories of f(x,y,z) one by each core.
The Host program has a run.ini file in order to run options:
axis yes/no; frame yes/no; assonometry view yes/no; +-zoom value; rotation xy, zy, xz; boost x y or z; step length; number of parallel batteries of cores; number of boards used.
Each core run its own program to model and calculate its f( x(t,k) y(t,k) z(t,k) ) in a form of a template to realize the evolution of the parametric functions.
Actually I'm running and using a cluster of up to 4 and 5 boards with 64 and 80 cores in a cluster of epiphany chips via eLink (North/South gates).
I'm going to apply Runge Kutta applications for 3D derivation of f(x,y,z) through 3D trajectories.
I can only image what we could do if it would be possible to using an access to a Framebuffer or an HDMI output.... still I've not been able to use any HDMI version of the Bitstream.
I hope someone could be able to add an HDMI and a Frambuffer to visualize dinamic 3D functions.
I'm available to share cluster setting and my application to work with multi cores boards.

has anyone tried to write a software renderer for parallella?
thanks,

I'd like to ask whether the project is still alive? I thought the difference between octacores risc-V and epiphany would be that epiphany is something like a DSP processor whereas octacores and hexacores are central processing units adding cores
So epiphany should still be faster then current hexacore processors or am I wrong? Also the idea of throwing out the FPGA and having a dual core single chip with integrated epiphany (if its that simple
) would create at least a very interesting competing board if not a mobile platform which doesnt necessarily be a mobile phone.thanks for answers,
Marek

I have a well working and ready cluster of 4 Parallella Adapteva boards with 4 Porcupine Boards and eLink interface that I do not use anymore.
Anybody is interested to purchase the full package ?
I repeat, well working with original P-Ubuntu for Cluster.
With Heat sink and fan, cables, 4 USB cables for powering each board.
Picture here attached.
Let me know, I could ship everywhere, shipment expenses and customs fees on charge to purchaser.
Best price to be agreed.
Thanks and best regards

Unfortunately, my monitor only has one (1) DVI and one VGA connection.
I've currently got a 4port VGA KVM that I am making use of for my three other systems am using the HDMI-DVI adapter on the monitor for my work laptop.
I have purchased a HDMI -> VGA adapter, which works with my work laptop, but doesn't generate the necessary signal when connected to the Parallella.
My preference is to run the work laptop on the HDMI/DVI adapter, and all my other 'home' systems (two intel Linux, one Mac mini, and the parallella) on the four port KVM.
Any thoughts (or suggestions) out there for how to get the parallella to work via the adapter? In the past, I've noticed issues with the parallella driving some HDMI monitors ...

Very quiet here, it almost feels like an antiquarian.
I plan to put my 7010 board to good use though with the new Vivado, which includes partial reprogramming. I've used Vivado before here, like , but it seems the high level language "Silicon Compilation" are taking off, and I like to make use of them on this cheap board before having to use for instance AWS credit for an F1 node.
Anyone try example projects on recent Vivado ?
THey seem to have just about every board as a design template, except for the Parallella, why so spartan, doesn't it sell anymore?
