Abstract: The TPVM (Threads-oriented PVM) system is an experimental auxiliary
subsystem for the PVM distributed system, which supports the use of lightweight
processes or "threads" as the basic unit of parallelism and scheduling. TPVM
provides a library interface which presents both a traditional, task based, explicit
message passing model, as well as a data-driven scheduling model that
enables straightforward specification of computation based on data dependencies. (Update)
