This is a release of the Jade implementation. This release is designed
for networks of workstations (SUN4, SGI, and DECStation) using PVM, for the 
Intel iPSC/860 hypercube, for the Stanford DASH multiprocessor, 
and for the SGI family of shared-memory multiprocessors. To acquire Jade, 
get the jade.tar.Z file, uncompress it and untar it. This will create a 
directory called jade in the directory where you typed the tar command. 
Here is a sample session:

> hing % uncompress jade.tar.Z
> hing % tar xf jade.tar
> hing % cd jade
> hing % vi Install

  This sample session leaves you looking at the jade/Install file,
which tells you how to install jade.

  If you are running Jade on a network of workstations, you will need
PVM. You must therefore obtain and install PVM if you don't already
have it. To obtain PVM, send mail to netlib@ornl.gov with a subject
line of "send index". netlib will send you mail which will tell
you how to get a lot of free software (including PVM).
Jade is for PVM 2.4, so be sure to get PVM 2.4, not PVM 3.
We have included a pvm2.4.tar.Z file, so you can use that if for
some reason you have problems getting pvm2.4 from netlib.
