Bargain-Basement Parallelism

(Page 2 of 2)
Feb03: Message Passing Systems

Message Passing Systems

If you have access to networked computers that you want to use for parallel processing, you can examine the freely available message passing systems. Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) is one such system, available at http://www.epm.ornl.gov/pvm/ and http://www.netlib.org/pvm3/index.html. On the other hand, Message Passing Interface (MPI) is technically not a system, but a standardized interface. For information on MPI, see http://www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/mpi/. There are two freely available implementations, MPICH (ftp://ftp.mcs.anl.gov/pub/mpi) and LAM/MPI (http://www.mpi.nd.edu/lam/).

    Modernize your Development by Moving Build and Code Quality Upstream
    Moderated by Jon Erickson, Editor-in-Chief of Dr. Dobb's, this interactive panel discussion brings industry experts Anders Wallgren, CTO of Electric Cloud and Gwyn Fisher, CTO of Klocwork together for a candid discussion of the cost savings, productivity and quality benefits that can be achieved by stabilizing builds and code quality as early in the development cycle as possible.

    The reality of today's development environment - geographically distributed teams, the use of Agile development practices, increasing application complexity, etc. - is straining the viability of the traditional coding, build and release process. To stay ahead of the curve, development teams are modernizing their approach to dealing with these issues, and as a result are achieving new levels of development productivity.
