Abstract
This paper presents the design of the Processing Node (PN) for an implementation of the PTAH architectural model with 64 PNs. The PTAH architecture is presented. The requirements of a 64 PNs implementation are derived. The design tradeoff for the global Processing Node architecture, the control system, the Floating Point and Integer Unit and the data memory is discussed. Finaly the instruction formats are presented.
