Hello everybody,

I'm looking for a package which combines PVM 3.3 with lightweight 
processes, e.g., I would like to control threads using PVM, so that
I can start a thread instead of a heavy weight Unix process with
a procedure similar to pvm_spawn().

Has anyone already developed such a packet or is someone about to develop
it? If not I have to do it by myself :-(.

Any ideas highly appreciated.

Thanks
