Foundations for building architectures for a wide range of document processing machines

· controllers : Network, Scanners...
· servers : Data Base servers, Printers, Gateway
· Add-in boards for standard workstations

Parallel processing architecture research

· new generation using more advanced concepts
& technology : VLSI, packaging

· Compatible with Operating systems like Mach
Future Unix version as SUNOS phase 3
& languages like Cedar

Special purpose operators using high bandwidth for document processing

· High speed network or disk controller
· Compression/ Decompression of images...
