AdCommunications - advanced communication toolbox for parallel programming
Example - just to test the environment
pvm - communications with other applications using Parallel Virutal Machine
pvm_addhosts - add hosts to the virtual machine.
pvm_barrier - blocks the calling process until all processes in a group have called it.
pvm_bcast - broacasts a message to all members of a group
pvm_bufinfo - Returns information about a message buffer.
pvm_config - sends a message
pvm_delhosts - deletes hosts from the virtual machine.
pvm_error - Prints message describing an error returned by a PVM call
pvm_exit - tells the local pvmd that this process is leaving PVM.
pvm_f772sci - Convert a F77 complex into a complex scalar
pvm_get_timer - Gets the system's notion of the current time.
pvm_getinst - returns the instance number in a group of a PVM process.
pvm_gettid - returns the tid of the process identified by a group name and instance number
pvm_gsize - returns the number of members presently in the named group.
pvm_halt - stops the PVM daemon
pvm_joingroup - enrolls the calling process in a named group.
pvm_kill - Terminates a specified PVM process.
pvm_lvgroup - Unenrolls the calling process from a named group.
pvm_mytid - returns the tid of the calling process.
pvm_parent - tid of the process that spawned the calling process.
pvm_probe - Check if message has arrived.
pvm_recv - receive a message.
pvm_reduce - Performs a reduce operation over members of the specified group
pvm_sci2f77 - Convert complex scalar into F77
pvm_send - immediately sends (or multicast) data.
pvm_set_timer - Sets the system's notion of the current time.
pvm_spawn - Starts new Scilab processes.
pvm_spawn_independent - Starts new PVM processes.
pvm_start - Start the PVM daemon
pvm_tasks - information about the tasks running on the virtual machine.
pvm_tidtohost - returns the host of the specified PVM process.
