Multiple platform-independent system

One advantage of the bond fluctuation method is that it works well on a variety of platforms, including vector computers, massively parallel computers, and super scalar processors. For a dense polymer melt in three dimensions, the vectorized code gives ca. 1.7 x 10 attempted moves per second for one processor on the Cray YMP for a volume fractions of (f) = 0.41. On massively parallel computers, the program has only been run to date in such a way that each processor ran one independent system. While the method should be parallelizable across multiple processors, this has not been done yet.
