Abstract

The Japanese are mounting a threat to the American position as preeminent producer of high technology. This threat has substantial implications not only for American high-technology industries and the high-performance computing industry in particular but for national security, as well. This paper examines the worldwide high-performance computing market in an attempt to place the U.S., Japan, and a number of other countries in a global context. The reasons for the erosion of American dominance are considered and remedies suggested.
