Mentat
     
         (After the human computers in Frank Herbert's SF
        classic, "Dune") An {object-oriented} distributed language
        developed at the {University of Virginia} some time before Dec
        1987.  Mentat is an extension of {C++} and is portable to a
        variety of {MIMD} architectures.
     
        By 1994 Mentat was available for {Sun-3}, {Sun-4}, {iPSC}/2
        with plans for {Mach}, {iPSC860}, {RS/6000} and {Iris}.  The
        language is now (May 1998) supported in a new project,
        {Legion}.
