Air Force, NASA radiation-hardened ARM processor RFQ for next-generation space computing
U.S. government space researchers want industry to develop a next-generation
radiation-hardened, general-purpose, multi-core processor
to meet on-board computing needs of future manned spacecraft and space robots. <-- Ψ space robots!

solicitation for the High Performance Spaceflight Computing (HPSC) Processor Chiplet program
for NASA and U.S. Air Force manned and unmanned spacecraft.

project expected to deliver a next-generation rad-hard space processor
based on the ARM processor architecture to provide
optimal power-to-performance for upgradeability, software availability, ease of use, and cost.

HPSC project to use Radiation Hard By Design (RHBD) standard cell libraries,
ARM A53 processor with its internal NEON single instruction, multiple data (SIMD) design <-- Ψ
ξ »Cortex-A53 Processor

heterogeneous multi-core architectures with many different processor core types
NOT believed to provide the best possible return on investment!

HPSC processor apps to include
military surveillance and weapons systems,
human-rated spacecraft, habitats and vehicles, and
robotic science and exploration platforms.

System applications range from small satellites to large flagship-class missions.

Space computing tasks of the HPSC processor to include
command and data handling,
guidance navigation and control, and
communications like software-defined radio; human assist,
data representation, and cloud computing;
high-rate real-time sensor data processing; and
autonomy <-- Ψ
and science processing.

HPSC processor will include Serial RapidIO (SRIO)
for high-bandwidth communications, and
several interfaces to high-speed off-chip memory.

SRIO interfaces also can function as advanced microcontroller bus architecture (AMBA)-bus bridges
to tile or cascade several processors to increase bandwidth or improve fault tolerance. <-- Ψ
