*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE *** I am looking for some information about the Connection Machine from MIT/Thinking Machines Inc. Could someone send me some pointers for some real articles? Or an article with a good bibliography? I've found plenty of popular literature articles, but the only technical paper I've found is the MIT memo by Hillis. Thanks in advance. d. todd Iketani USENET: usc-cse!iketani ARPANET: IKETANI@USC-ECL

Daniel Hillis has written a book entitled
"The Connection Machine". It is available through the Library of Computer
and Informaiton Sciences (book club). I am sure that It can be found elsewhere.I just recieved the book and It seems very readable if not intriguing.
Hope I have Helped,

Also, if all you have read is the old AI memo, you should definitely read the book, |The Connection Machine|, by Danny Hillis, published last year by the MIT Press. -- --Bruce Nemnich, Thinking Machines Corporation, Cambridge, MA --bruce@think.com, ihnp4!think!bruce; +1 617 876 1111
