http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.48.2801 Experimental thread-based implementation to take advantage of symmetric multiprocessors. CiteSeerX - Document Details (Isaac Councill, Lee Giles): LPVM (Lightweight-process PVM) system is an experimental PVM version which supports the use of lightweight-process or threads as the basic unit of parallelism. It was designed to study potential performance improvements and implementation issues required by multithreaded message-passing systems. The current version of LPVM was implemented on SMPs using the native threads and is designed to be thread-safe. Initial test results on SUN SMP are compared to standard PVM. 1 Introduction With the help of parallel programming software systems such as PVM [1] and MPI [2], loosely-coupled distributed computing systems, usually composed of networks of workstations [3], have been very popular for many years as a cost-effective alternative to highperformance computing. Since 1994, the increasing availability of affordable SMP (shared memory multiprocessor or symmetrical multiprocessor) systems have begun to emerge as the lower end of high-performance computing. Clusters of SMPs, also called SPPs ...
