  comment = {Previously, hypercubes were programmed as a combination of host
  and node programs. Salmon proposes to use a universal host program that acts
  essentially as a file server, responding to requests from the node programs.
  Two modes: crystalline, where node programs run in loose synchrony, and
  amorphous, where node programs are asynchronous. In the crystalline case,
  files have a single file pointer and are either single- or multiple- access;
  single access means all nodes must simultaneously issue the same request;
  multiple access means they all simultaneously issue the same request with
  different parameters, giving an interleaved pattern. Amorphous allows
  asynchronous activity, with separate file pointers per node.}
