Example Introductory Parallel Programs in PVM and MPI
(Parallel Virtual Machine and Message Passing Interface)

1. PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine) and MPI (Message Passing Interface) Programs
   • MPI PROGRAMS:
     Proj. 3B, explain and run an introductory parallel program(s)
     DUE Fri. Oct. 24, 2003
     • MPI Links
     • Running an MPI Program
     • greetings.c
     • greetings.cpp
     • recipMPI.c (same as master0/slave0.pvm)
     • trap.c
     • trap.cpp
     • Josh Blake's MPI example, Makefile, sample hostfile
     • Other intro MPI programs (from the LAM Tutorial slides)
       • simpleMpi.c
       • simpleMpi.cpp
       • simple2Mpi.c
       • simple2Mpi.cpp
       • simple3Mpi.c
       • simple3Mpi.cpp
     • mpi-julia.c, generates a julia set with portions allocated to "slave" processes. MPI version
     • mpi-basicwin.c, Mpiglut (MPI for GLUT - c version)
       This program is modeled on Jeff Grafton's mpi-julia program,
       this version generates a parabola by splitting up the computation
       among n "slaves"
