Developing large programs for parallel, distributed computer systems is         at least as difficult as developing software for more traditional               sequential systems.  The added difficulty is in the innovation required         to exploit the multiplicity of processors.  Considerable effort has             been expended to build operating and networks so that they are                  conducive to distributed programming, and new programming languages             have been built to increase the expressive computation so that it takes         advantage of the structure of the support system.  Program designers do         not have adequate tools to assist them in creating and evaluating               parallel, distributed computations.  They also lack convenient ways to          describe, model and visualize these computations.  The goal of the              research is to study mechanism that support the orderly exploration of          parallel program structures, and which provide varying amounts of               feedback evaluation during that design process.
