Chapter 17. Project: The Not Too Parallel Virtual Machine
PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine) provides a high-level, but not transparent, system for a user to coordinate tasks spread across workstations on a network. This project describes a threaded implementation of the Not Too Parallel Virtual Machine (NTPVM) dispatcher, a simplified PVM system. The multithreaded implementation illustrates the interaction between threads and fork, providing a semirealistic application in which to explore complex thread interactions.
- Learn about distributed processing
- Experiment with threads and I/O
- Explore the interaction of threads with fork
- Use threads to solve a real problem
- Understand the use of objects in thread design
