%X In this paper we discuss the efficient implementation of the
   STRIP (Strong Rule Induction in Parallel) algorithm in
   parallel using a transputer network. Strong rules are rules
   that are almost always correct. We show that STRIP is well
   suited for parallel implementation with scope at four
   different levels for the transputer network using different
   number of transputers. The choice of certain variables (the
   number and size of samples) in the STRIP algorithm affects
   the performance (speedup and efficiency) of the
   implementation.
