  • Abstract
    THE research domains of parallel and distributed computing have a significant overlap. With the advent of general-purpose multiprocessors, this overlap is bound to increase. This Special Issue attempts to draw together several papers from both of these separate research domains to illustrate commonalty and to encourage greater interaction among researchers in the two communities.
