Abstract

This paper describes many of the advanced features available in PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine) and how to take advantage of these features to create sophisticated distributed computing applications. The reader is expected to already have an understanding of parallel and distributed computing and a knowledge of the basic features provided by the PVM software. Topics covered in this paper include improving application performance, adding fault tolerance, building interactive applications, debugging, developing PVM ”plug-ins”, and a brief overview of the expanding scope of PVM with the creation of packages like CUMULVS, JavaPVM and TkPVM.
