I think useful parallel programming paradigms can very probably be
abstracted from really big systems like a national health system or an
army. How parallelism is employed in those systems, would be a good
starting point for a deeper investigation.
Especially a military system must have some very concrete, well tried
and tested, ways of organising things in parallel. Government is
another one, but I'm not sure if that's a good model ;-)
