EASYPVM
EnhAnced Subroutine librarY for PVM

Sami Saarinen

Abstract:

EASYPVM is a message passing library built on top of the Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) version 3.2. The purpose of EASYPVM is to considerably facilitate the use of PVM-programs by supplying a small set of functions that hide the details of PVM-message passing syntax and process creation. It provides a very coordinated and clear message passing programming approach and eliminates the need of any unnecessary parameters in message passing calls. EASYPVM also introduces some important global commmunication routines and has a very simple interface to PICL/ParaGraph message tracing postprocessor.
