Next: Mapping Identifiers Up: PVMPI: An Integration Previous: Interoperation Requirements and

Prototype Systems

A prototype system has been developed to ease the interconnection of MPI and PVM. Four separate issues have been addressed:

  1. mapping identifiers or managing MPI and PVM IDs,

  2. start-up facilities and process management,

  3. MPI-style PVM message passing and collective operations, and

  4. improved security and performance with attribute locking.
