Hi,

In a studious work ("Studienarbeit") at the University Karlsruhe/Germany i 
have developed a new kind of parallel processors which i call Cellular
Processor Clusters (CPC). The work was done in spring 1997 and by now i have
translated the whole thing to english to be able to post it to the WWW.

Abstract:

   In this Studienarbeit i want to introduce a new kind of parallel
  processing computer (cellular processor cluster, CPC), with which it is
  possible to use large and fine grain parallelity (down to the command
  level). Cellular processor clusters consist of a number of cells, each one
  storing one command and its data, which can communicate by a connection
  network. A cell executes its command when it is active. The attribute of
  being active (the activity) is passed from one cell to another.
  The efficiency of the new principle of computing is examined by comparison
  with known concepts of parallel computing.


Greets,

    Daniel Berger
