Paraller::Pvm is a perl interface to the Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM)
|
|
Message Passing System.
|
|
|
|
The PVM message passing system enables a programmer to configure a group
|
|
of (possibly heterogenous) computers connected by a network into a
|
|
parallel virtual machine.
|
|
|
|
Using PVM, applications can be developed which spawns parallel processes
|
|
onto nodes in the virtual machine to perform specific tasks. These
|
|
parallel tasks can also periodically exchange information using a set of
|
|
message passing functions developed for the system.
|
|
|
|
PVM applications have mostly been developed in the scientific and
|
|
engineering fields. However applications for real-time and
|
|
client/server systems can also be developed. PVM simply provides a
|
|
convenient way for managing parallel tasks and communications without
|
|
need for rexec or socket level programming.
