	associated with the technology, a review of parallel platform and
	parallel database architectures, and an exhaustive comparison of the
	current crop of commercially viable MPPs. The class also discusses

	importance of commodity economics in influencing which of the plethora
	of MPP architectures is likely to make it to the year 2000.
