Also covers communication cost, beam strain analysis, and a bit on benchmarking. Winner of 1988 Bell and Karp Prizes. Gary sent this preprint to me (several of usi actually). Looks good. I could post the eqn, but 1) I don't touch type and this new BitGraph keyboard is awkward, and 2) the vast majority of you won't read this anyway. Oh, I'll put a recommended reading keyword in it. >From the Rock of Ages Home for Retired Hackers: --eugene miya, NASA Ames Research Center, eugene@ames-aurora.ARPA "You trust the `reply' command with all those different mailers out there?"
