Amorphous Computing

'''Amorphous computing''' refers to computational systems that use very large numbers of identical, parallel processors each having limited computational ability and local interactions.  The term Amorphous Computing was coined at MIT in 1996 in a paper entitled [http://www-swiss.ai.mit.edu/projects/amorphous/white-paper/amorph-new/amorph-new.html "Amorphous Computing Manifesto"] by Abelson, Knight, Sussman, et al.
