Scalable Multithreading in a Low Latency Myrinet Cluster
Albano Alves, António Pina, José Rufino, José Exposto · 2002
Abstract. In this paper we present some implementation details of a programming model – pCoR – that combines primitives to launch remote processes and threads with communication over Myrinet. Basi-cally, we present the efforts we have made to achieve high performance communication among threads of parallel/distributed applications. The expected advantages of multiple threads launched across a low latency cluster of SMP workstations are emphasized with a graphical application that manages huge maps consisting of several JPEG images. 1
