Abstract:

Based on the analysis of the semantics of PVM parallel programming environment, and the characteristics of Dawning cluster systems, some important design decisions, completely different with that in TCP/IP based PVM3.3. 11, are made. On Dawning 2000 cluster system, a customized PVM parallel grog ramming environment, called DPVM ( Dawning PVM), isimplemented. The performanse evaluation shows that DPVM is not only able to be compatible with standard PVM semantics, but also much more efficient than TCP/ IP based PVM.

Key words: PVM parallel programming environment, message passing, Dawning cluster system
