Date: Tue, 25 Oct 1994 14:10:04 GMT Message-ID: <1994Oct25.141004.15911@Princeton.EDU> Hello all, Here are some references I gathered when I started on my research into NNs on parallel architectures. I haven't updated the list for a while but it should be a good starting point. Cheers ;-) Minh Tran -------------------------------------------------------------- BIBLIOGRAPHY [1] Abbruzzese, F.
