Enhancing Functionality and Performance in the PVM Network Computing System.211 Final project report

摘要

The work funded by this grant was part of an ongoing research project in211u001eheterogeneous distributed computing with the PVM system, at Emory as well as at 211u001eOak Ridge Labs and the University of Tennessee. This grant primarily supported 211u001eresearch at Emory on various facets of network computing in general and the PVM 211u001esystem in particular. However, the research efforts also include the PI's ongoing 211u001einteraction with the other groups in terms of collaborative research as well as 211u001esoftware systems development and maintenance. The PVM related phase of our 211u001eefforts is now complete, although we are continuing work on the next generation 211u001eheterogeneous computing environments under the Harness project. In this report, 211u001ewe summarize our research results and accomplishments with respect to the PVM 211u001eproject, until the end of the funding and project periods, viz. September 14, 211u001e1998.
