Abstract:
NASA’s Space Technology Mission Directorate (STMD) is funding the development of the HPSC processor which will provide dramatic advances in onboard computing capabilities for future NASA missions. For future earth science missions, HPSC can enable high performance processing for onboard data reduction for missions where sensor bandwidth exceeds available downlink bandwidth. HPSC can also support the increased onboard autonomy needed to enable sensor web.
