I have made several improvements and extensions to the MulSim
multiprocessor simulator I posted here a few months ago, such as

   --  built-in memory-access functions list expanded to:

          bus; crossbar; snoopy-invalidate bus; snoopy-update bus

   --  on-line help facility added

   --  user documentation expanded

(A malloc error which showed up sometimes in the SPARC version has
also been fixed.)

In addition, I have now made the package available via anonymous ftp,
instead of e-mail, which was getting to be too cumbersome.  The ftp site
is cs.ucdavis.edu, in the directory pub/MulSim.

Please let me know if you have any questions or problems concerning
the package.
