Description
Parallel computing has become a reality; this book brings together the work of researchers who share the goal of making parallel programming easier and more accessible. Five main areas are covered: Papers in the environments area describe a system called MP, and a graphical programming environment. The area of visualisation and monitoring is the largest. Subjects include the PRISM system from Thinking Machines Corporation, validation using program models and event traces, and a variety of generic visualisation and monitoring systems. Also included is the adaptation of a portable performance measurement system to a multi-transputer monitoring system. Models papers include the Enterprise model, interprocessor communication using shared objects, a system called SYMPLE and a virtual processor model for massively parallel systems. The applications papers concentrate primarily on ways to help the programmer develop scalable applications. In the area of tools and toolkits there are papers describing the SIGMA II program analysis and restructuring library, and a debugger called HyperDEBU for parallel logic programs.
