In a recent exposition on parallel computing in the popular press the
following paragraph appeared. Can anyone name this project, its investigators,
a contact, a publication, or provide any further information?

	"Another Yale program - to monitor the equipment in an
	intensive-care unit - is more flexible still. Each processor
	in this system runs a different program, which monitors the
	equipment for signs of a particular problem or ailment. Because
	each program has its own processor, it is ever-vigilant for
	signs of its disease."

Thank you,
