Newsgroups: comp.parallel.pvm From: PAPAZIS Nikos Subject: Re: New to PVM Organization: Athens High Performance Computing Lab Date: Wed, 27 May 1998 19:22:57 +0300 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <356C3DE0.318DA420@hpcl.uoa.gr> Tasks on PVM can be dynamically created through the "spawn" mechanism. "Spawn" is a call that directs the PVM what tasks to create, on which particular host, with what particular command line parameters. There are additional parameters to "spawn". For a better understanding of PVM mechanisms, you can visit the following link http://www.netlib.org/pvm3/book/pvm-book.html at which an html User Guide for PVM 3.3 resides. -- ----------------------------------- ----------------------------------- -- Name : Nikos Papazis -- -- -- -- E-mail : papazis@hpcl.uoa.gr -- -- Tel : (+301) 7226895 -- -- Fax : (+301) 7233113 -- ----------------------------------- -----------------------------------
