A parallel processing computer is described that has several processing devices of several different processing device types each communicating over a computer network. The computer has at least one conversion device in communication with the processing devices, the conversion device being a processing device having conversion code for translating at least some task allocation and other messages from a format understood by the conversion device into a format understood for execution by a particular type of the several types of the processing devices. The computer also has at least one access device in communication with the at least one conversion device, the access device having program code for allocating tasks to processing devices and generating task allocation messages to processing devices. The computer network in an embodiment involves portions of the cellular telephone network as well as part of the internet.
