Cooperative processes software (CPS)
C. Kaliher · AIP conference proceedings · 1990
CPS is a package of software tools for splitting of computational task, called a job, among a set of processes distributed over one or more processors. It is designed to function as a tool for solving computing problems which require many computing cycles per I/O byte, and is well suited for computing platforms consisting of ‘‘farms’’ of processors, operating in parallel. This paper describes three essential features of CPS: data transfers between cooperating processes, remote subroutine calls, and process queues.
