The only MEMNET that I know of is the Farber/Delp research that went on at the University of Delaware. MEMNET being the networked shared memory between IBM pc's. Professor David Farber is now at the University of Pennsylvania, Gary Delp is now at the IBM Watson research center. I can anyone more information, contact, etc on the continuing research if desired. MEMNET, as published, has no connection with CMU as I know it. Mark
