    What's New at GreenArrays

    arrayForth 3d Released, documentation updated 13 Nov 2022:
    This is the fourth release of the integrated development system for our chips, with accumulaterd improvements and documentation updates that reflect 3d and incorporate users' suggestions.

    arrayForth 3 Released 21 May 2019:
    The new development platform for the GA144 is arrayForth 3, which is released today for general use. This package supports cross-development from saneFORTH/x86 running on a PC or win32 equivalent using high speed serial communication, and/or within-
    platform development using polyFORTH/GA144 running on the Host chip of an evaluation board (or equivalent) with much higher speed capability for communicating with microcode running in F18A nodes on Host and/or Target chips.

    What's New at GreenArrays

    arrayForth 3d Released, documentation updated 13 Nov 2022:
    This is the fourth release of the integrated development system for our chips, with accumulaterd improvements and documentation updates that reflect 3d and incorporate users' suggestions.

    arrayForth 3 Released 21 May 2019:
    THE AGENDA FOR TODAY - STARTING IN ABOUT 90 MINUTES
    The new development platform for the GA144 is arrayForth 3, which is released today for general use. This package supports cross-development from saneFORTH/x86 running on a PC or win32 equivalent using high speed serial communication, and/or
    within-platform development using polyFORTH/GA144 running on the Host chip of an evaluation board (or equivalent) with much higher speed capability for communicating with microcode running in F18A nodes on Host and/or Target chips.
    09:00 WELCOME --- Kevin Appert, Program Chairman and Master of Ceremonies
