The PVM System: Supercomputer Level Concurrent Computation on a Heterogeneous Network of Workstations

The PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine) system enables supercomputer level concurrent computations to be performed on interconnected networks of heterogeneous computer systems. Specifically, a network of 13 IBM RS/6000 powerstations has been used to run superconductor modeling codes at more than 250 Mflops. This paper describes the PVM system and two example applications running on it. 3 refs., 1 fig., 2 tabs.
