	Parallel Virtual Machine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is designed to allow a network of heterogeneous machines to be used as a single distributed parallel processor.
		PVM was developed by the University of Tennessee, The Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Emory University.
		Though PVM is not being actively developed, it was a significant step towards modern trends in distributed processing and grid computing.

	Virtual machine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Because versions of the virtual machine are written for various computer platforms, any application written for the virtual machine can be operated on any of the platforms, instead of having to produce separate versions of the application for each computer and operating system.
		The term virtual machine is now also used to refer to the environment created by an emulator, where software is used to emulate an operating system for the end user, while the computer runs its own native operating system.
		For example, the p-Code machine specification (one of the first, used for support of Pascal) was a description of a specific set of capabilities and behaviors that programmers could use to write programs that would run on any computer running virtual machine software that correctly implemented the specification.

	Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) - Parallel Programming
		PVM was created as a message passing system that enables a network of heterogenous (in the first versions only supported Unix) computers to be used as a single large distributed memory parallel virtual machine.
		PVM enables a collection of heterogenous computer systems to be viewed as one single parallel virtual machine, independent from the underlying architectures.
		PVM originally was designed for distributed parallel systems, although SMP support was introduced later on (with shared memory and threads on a few architectures), It provides easy to use functions for process-to-process and group communication.

	PVM - Parallel Virtual Machine (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		PVM is a software system that allows a collection of heterogeneous computers to be used together as one computer system.
		For the moment, pvm may be used at anytime on any/all of the workstations in the grad lab (i.e., diamond, amber, coral, jade, pearl, and mica).
		Also, you may not be able to add all the machines that you specify in the.pvmrc file since these machines may be heavily loaded at the time.

	Parallel Virtual Machine (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) is a programming library and distributed system that provides programmers with a method of executing processes over a heterogeneous network of machines and implements a complete message-passing model.
		PVM is the result of a collaborative venture between Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the University of Tennessee, Emory University and Carnegie Mellon University.
		The main process may want to obtain information about the current virtual machine, for example if the virtual machine consists of 8 hosts then it may only be efficient to use 16 slaves (2 slaves per host), rather than some arbitrarily large number of slaves.

	Parallel Virtual Machine - Margaret Barusch
		PVM is a software package that allows Unix, Windows and Sun machines to be networked and used as a single larger computer.
		PVM allows a user to divide a problem into smaller ones and assign each one to be done by the machine best (ie fastest) at doing that particular task.
		Using PVM, entire groups of thousands of particles could be split among a group of processors and first have their centers of mass calculated and sent to the other processors which could then use each of those centers of mass as well as the effects of the other particles to calculate net force.

	Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) Version 3
		PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine) is a software system that enables a collection of heterogeneous computers to be used as a coherent and flexible concurrent computational resource.
		PVM is particularly effective for heterogeneous applications that exploit specific strengths of individual machines on a network.
		The PVM system has been used for applications such as molecular dynamics simulations, superconductivity studies, distributed fractal computations, matrix algorithms, and in the classroom as the basis for teaching concurrent computing.

	Distributed Multiprocessor Environments
		Since the 1991 public release of PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine) [1] the teaching of parallel processing has been an option, even in schools with a limited budget, provided that the educational institution supports Unix or a Unix variant.
		The PVM Users’ Guide is available on-line in HTML format [3], as well as PostScript format, [4] while there is no comparable free source for the MPI Users’ Guide [5] (at least that the author is aware of).
		The simplest parallel programming is for what are called "embarrassingly parallel problems" [16] (requiring minimal interprocess communications) done on a computer with more than one processor.

		PVM is among the most popular and widespread message passing parallel programming interfaces.
		With MPI becoming a de facto standard for message passing programming the use of PVM is expected to decrease.
		Also, PVM currently has better inter-host functionality than MPI when running parallel applications across heterogenous virtual parallel machines.

		Abstract: Providing the parallel programming community with a single abstract view to a heterogeneous network of workstations is a very intrinsic task.
		Parallel programmers want a facility to combine a set of workstations and use this pool to create and execute threads.
		Alleviating the programmers from time consuming mechanisms such as managing communication among the threads over a network, scheduling threads and balancing the load through thread migration are all crucial.

		Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) is an utility that allows you to send parts of a program to other computers to do.
		For my PVM program, I made a program that sends each of its slaves two pairs of floats, corresponding to the endpoints of a line, and an iteration number.
		The slave program would do a fractal process on its line, then, if the iteration number was greater than one, would spawn its own slaves on each line segment it generated.

		PVM is a popular message passing interface used in numerous heterogeneous hardware environments ranging from distributed memory parallel machines to networks of workstations.
		I didn't take the time to reverse-engineer PVM and make JPVM interoperable because JPVM is really just an experimental toy for me at this point - a rough prototype that can be used to experiment with parallel programming in Java on a network of workstations.
		This allows the active processing entities in a parallel program to be processes, threads (which can communicate via messages in a location transparent manner), or any combination of these, allowing advanced latency hiding and load balancing techniques to be coded in a straight-forward fashion.
