1.1 Background There are many paradigmatic statements in the
literature claiming that this is the decade of parallel
computation. A great deal of research is being de voted to
developing architectures and algorithms for parallel machines with
thousands, or even millions, of processors. Such massively parallel
computers have been made feasible by advances in VLSI (very large
scale integration) technology. In fact, a number of computers
having over one thousand pro cessors are commercially available.
Furthermore, it is reasonable to expect that as VLSI technology
continues to improve, massively parallel computers will become
increasingly affordable and common. However, despite the
significant progress made in the field, many funda mental issues
still remain unresolved. One of the most significant of these is
the issue of a general purpose parallel architecture. There is
currently a huge variety of parallel architectures that are either
being built or proposed. The problem is whether a single parallel
computer can perform efficiently on all computing applications."
