Abstract :
The article develops a framework for message-passing architectures consisting of a machine model called communicating random access machine (CRAM) and a programming paradigm. The CRAM model serves as a vehicle for the design and analysis of message-passing algorithms. The message-passing paradigm makes the mapping of algorithms that fit this paradigm onto message-passing architectures more natural
