摘要：

The Message-Driven Processor, an integrated multicomputer node, provides efficient mechanisms for parallel computing. Rather than being specialized for a single model of computation, the MDP incorporates primitive mechanisms for communication, synchronization, and naming. These mechanisms efficiently support most proposed parallel programming models. Each processing node of MIT's J-Machine consists of an MDP with 1 Mbyte of DRAM. MDPs have been operational since June 1991, and J-Machines built from them went on fine in July 1991.
