Some thoughts on parallel processing

In the past two years or so I have seen a number of papers and heard a number of talks describing the characteristics of (and the wonders inherent in) certain computers like Gamma 60, LARC, H-800, STRETCH, and others.

Now this is a truly marvelous property, especially from the point of view of the common variety of “my-job's-on-the-machine-keep-your-cotton-pickin'-hands-off” programmer.
