Hi,
I'm wondering if someone has done a comparison of different systems that 
are available for implementing platform independent parallel systems (my 
personal interest is in harnessing our Windows 3.1/NT network when the 
load is low for doing GA work...). I have looked at PVM and now have 
come across MPI - I'm beginning to get confused as to what there is out 
there and what's best.
I've read the FAQs, and I'm sure someone has addressed these issues 
before. Any pointers from the experts as to resources about this would 
be very welcome.
Thanks,
Pete
