....and special purpose graphics engines, thereby permitting the use of the best suited computing resource for each component of an application. This versatility is valuable for several large and complex applications including global environmental modeling [5] fluid dynamics simulations [6], and weather prediction applications. However, the full effectiveness of the PVM system can be realized, with significant benefits, on common hardware platforms such as a local network of general purpose workstations. The PVM system is composed of a suite of userinterface primitives supporting ....

.... requirements. These requirements are often diverse enough that it is difficult to program them within a unified framework, and cumbersome, and sometime impractical, to execute the system on a single machine. An example of such a system is the fluid dynamics application termed BF3D, described in [17]. This application is not only compute intensive; it uses large amounts of memory, creates very large quantities of output data, and requires 2D and 3D graphics terminals to display results. The algorithm essentially involves the solution of a set of partial differential equations in three ....
