This book presents the proceedings of the First International EURO-PAR Conference on Parallel Processing, held in Stockholm, Sweden in August 1995. EURO-PAR is the merger of the former PARLE and CONPAR-VAPP conference series; the aim of this merger is to create the premier annual scientific conference on parallel processing in Europe. The book presents 50 full revised research papers and 11 posters selected from a total of 196 submissions on the basis of 582 reviews. The scope of the contributions spans the full spectrum of parallel processing ranging from theory over design to application; thus the volume is a "must" for anybody interested in the scientific aspects of parallel processing or its advanced applications.
