You'ld have to be more specific than "parallel processing - both hardware and software". Two texts which seem to be pretty good, but not outstanding are: Computer Architecture and Parallel Processing, by Hwang and Briggs (McGraw Hill, 1984) Distributed Computing, edited by Fred Chambers, David Duce and Gillian Jones (Academic Press, 1984) Both give good lists of article references in the standard journals. -- Doug Pase -- ...ucbvax!tektronix!ogcvax!pase or pase@Oregon-Grad.csnet
