Silicon Cartoon Computer Systems or SGCS) was a architect of high-performance accretion solutions, including computer accouterments and software, founded in 1981 by Jim Clark. Its antecedent bazaar was 3D cartoon affectation terminals, but its products, strategies and bazaar positions acquired decidedly over time.
Initial systems were based on the Geometry Engine that Clark and Marc Hannah had developed at Stanford University, and were acquired from Clark's broader accomplishments in computer graphics. The Geometry Engine was the aboriginal very-large-scale affiliation (VLSI) accomplishing of a geometry pipeline, specialized accouterments that accelerated the "inner-loop" geometric computations bare to affectation three-dimensional images.
SGI was headquartered in Sunnyvale, California; it was originally congenital as a California association in November 1981, and reincorporated as a Delaware association in January 1990. On April 1, 2009, SGI filed for Chapter 11 defalcation aegis and appear that it would advertise essentially all of its assets to Rackable Systems, a accord accomplished on May 11, 2009, with Rackable bold the name "Silicon Cartoon International
