Abstract
A method is proposed for designing a family of linear systolic arrays for matrix-oriented problems for which two-dimensional arrays have been designed. The design exhibits a tradeoff between local storage, s, and number of processing elements, n. The arrays are linear, with each processor having storage O(s),1>
