This is something like asking for information about `computers' (for a
naive first person).  I think the community should DESIGNATE several
works and go with them (improve them).  Just checking Caltech references
resulted in over 1000 lines of citations.  Most of which are
unfathomable to the average person.  There are now (also) the yearly
conference papers published by SIAM.

This is a community thing.  Using buzzwords doesn't help.
I sort of wonder if people really regard the Connection Machine (tm)
as a Hypercube.  It could also be argued that meshes can be molded (using
software) into hypercubes.  So do I give a person like this CM references?
