I am interested in finding out about (commercial) implementations of
parallel C, which run in a Unix/Ultrix or perhaps DOS/Xenix environment.
Perhaps you could tell me its Name, Vendor, approx Price, and any
personal experiences you have had with it. I will post a summary to
the net if there is sufficient interest.
Secondly, has anybody heard anything about parallel C++ ?

Thanks in advance, Micheal.

While this isn't a commercial package, you might want to look at Parallel C, written by some folks from Penn State (who are now at my university). Essentially, it's a set of extensions to C that makes life on MIMD machines very easy. Things like y = +{x}; /* add x from each node and store in my y */ along with range operations, etc. I've ported this package so that it runs under CalTech's Cosmic Environment... If you like, you can ftp it from karazm.math.uh.edu (129.7.7.6). -- J. Eric Townsend -- University of Houston Dept. of Mathematics (713) 749-2120 Internet: jet@uh.edu Bitnet: jet@UHOU Skate UNIX(r)

You can get a VAX running ULTRIX as a front end, too, if you've got any extra bucks.
