Title: Space shuttle general purpose computers (GPCs) (current and future versions) 
 
Description: 
 
Current and future versions of general purpose computers (GPCs) for space  
shuttle orbiters are represented in this frame.  The two boxes on the left  
(AP101B) represent the current GPC configuration, with the input-output  
processor at far left and the central processing unit (CPU) at its side.  
The  upgraded version combines both elements in a single unit (far right, 
AP101S).
