Description
In January 1984, the #1 machine of the FACOM VP-100 Series (FACOM VP-100) began operating at the Nagoya University Plasma Research Center.
Later, the high-end FACOM VP-400, with improved performance, was added, and a processing performance exceeding 1GFLOPS was measured for the first time in the world. Also, the market was expanded by adding lower-end models: the FACOM VP-50 and FACOM VP-30. The FACOM VP Series E Models, enhanced versions of the FACOM VP-100 Series, were announced in July 1987.
