Express versus PVM: A performance
Due to the increasing popularity of networked clusters of workstations and the need for portability across various parallel and distributed platforms, a number of programming environments have been proposed to develop parallel programs. Express and PVM are two such commonly used environments that are available on most commercial parallel computers as well as a variety of clusters of workstation...
متن کاملA Comparison of the Iserver-Occam, Parix, Express, and PVM Programming Environments on a Parsytec GCel
We compare the Iserver-Occam, Parix, PVM, and Express parallel programming environments on a Parsytec GCel with 512 T805 transputers. The comparison will be made by a detailed analysis of the performance of one particular application. In our approach we start with this application and isolate the basic (environment dependent) building blocks. These basic building blocks, which depend on floatin...
متن کاملPVM and MPI a Comparison of Features
This paper compares PVM and MPI features pointing out the situ ations where one may be favored over the other Application developers can determine where their application most likely will run and if it re quires particular features supplied by only one or the other of the APIs MPI is expected to be faster within a large multiprocessor It has many more point to point and collective communication...
متن کاملA High-Performance PVM for Alpha Clusters
This paper describes a new implementation of the PVM message-passing system that is optimised for operation on multiprocessor and clustered Digital Alpha UNIX machines, while still allowing interoperabil-ity with other implementations of PVM and providing a fully-compatible PVM API. Initial performance results are detailed which show that hitherto supercomputer-class message-passing performance...
متن کاملPerformance Prediction of PVM Programs
As workstation clusters gain popularity as a parallel computing platform,there is an increasing need for performance tools that support these platforms. Performance prediction is important for performance analysis of scalable parallel applications. Although there are several performance tools available that work with PVM programs,none are capable of performance prediction. We have developed the...
