abstract = "The Paragen System is an automatic parallelisation
system which takes a serial program and, using a
combination of Genetic Programming and Genetic
Algorithms, transforms it into a functionally identical
parallel program. This paper gives an overview of the
system, describing the novel way in which GP and GA are
integrated, before giving the first substantial results
for the system. The programs that are processed by the
system illustrate that it can handle programs which
contain a combination of loops and atomic instructions,
and we show the advantage of applying the system to a
program as a whole, rather than simply to one kind of
instruction",
