Encore Computer Corporation supplies very high performance parallel
systems supporting up to 20 processors currently.  Both NS32532 and
M88100 are supported. 

The Multimax supports 20 NS32532 processors running UMAX V os.  In
addition, Mach is available to research institutions and OSF is
using the Multimax as the reference platform for OSF/1.  They are
also using our Mach kernel as the basis for the OSF/1 kernel

The Encore 91 supports 2 or 4 M88100 CPUs and run UMAX V for
development along with the MicroMPX co-resident real-time OS.
Micro-MPX is descended from Encore (Gould/Sel) MPX-32 real-time OS.
It features a fully multithreaded kernal and excellent real-time
response.  The 91 performs real-time I/O through VME controllers.
