  Para++ is a set of C++ class that allows to simply Message Passing programs by 
encapsulating message passing primitives into a higher level of abstraction.
  All communications are defined by using C++-streams.
  This package is available on top of MPI and PVM.

New features are included:

 - improved Vector and Matrix Class
 - add VectorBase class
	We can define VectorBase< any Object>
 - add ParaStreamIn::arrived() function for non blocking receive.
