Dear parallelers,

  We are planning to transplat a application program from Ncube/2 to
the i860 hypercube. We haven't got the technical materials about the 
machine. Can someone give me an answer to the following questions?

1) Does the machine have a general purpose message passing software
   system? (I mean interrupt driven message passing, as opposed to the
   synchronous message passing like the CrOS).
2) Is there any documentations or technical reports available on the
   use of the i860 machine?

Thanks.

Wang, Jingwen   wangjw@usceast.cs.scarolina.edu
