	"Users' Guide to mpich, a Portable Implementation of MPI"
	by Patrick Bridges, Nathan Doss, William Gropp, Edward Karrels, Ewing
	Lusk and Anthony Skjellum. July 31, 1995.
	ABSTRACT:
	MPI (Message-Passing Interface) is a standard specification for
	message-passing libraries. mpich is a portable implementation of the
	full MPI specification for a wide variety of parallel computing
	environments. This paper describes how to build and run MPI programs

	"Installation Guide to mpich, a Portable Implementation of MPI"
	by Patrick Bridges, Nathan Doss, William Gropp, Edward Karrels, Ewing
	Lusk and Anthony Skjellum. August 1st, 1995.
	ABSTRACT:
	MPI (Message-Passing Interface) is a standard specification for
	message-passing libraries. mpich is a portable implementation of the
	full MPI specification for a wide variety of parallel computing
	environments, including workstation clusters and massively parallel
	processors (MPPs). mpich contains, along with the MPI library itself,
	a programming environment for working with MPI programs. The
	programming environment includes a portable startup mechanism, several
	profiling libraries for studying the performance of MPI programs, and
	an X interface to all of the tools. This guide explains how to
	compile, test, and install mpich and its related tools.

/parallel/environments/splash/

/parallel/environments/splash/splash2_isca95.ps.gz
	"The SPLASH-2 Programs: Characterization and Methodological
	Considerations"
	by Steven Cameron Woo, Moriyoshi Ohara, Evan Torrie, Jaswinder Pal
	Singh and Anoop Gupta, Computer Systems Laboratory, Stanford
	University and Department of Computer Science, Princeton University.
	Appears in the Proceedings of the 22nd Annual International Symposium
	on Computer Architecture, pages 24-36, June 1995.
	ABSTRACT:
	The SPLASH-2 suite of parallel applications has recently been
	released to facilitate the study of centralized and distributed
	shared-address-space multiprocessors. In this context, this paper has
	two goals. One is to quantitatively characterize the SPLASH-2 programs
	in terms of fundamental properties and architectural interactions that
	are important to understand them well. The properties we study include
	the computational load balance, communication to computa- tion ratio
	and traffic needs, important working set sizes, and issues related to
	spatial locality, as well as how these properties scale with problem
	size and the number of processors. The other, related goal is
	methodological: to assist people who will use the programs in
	architectural evaluations to prune the space of application and
	machine parameters in an informed and meaningful way. For example, by
	characterizing the working sets of the applications, we describe which
	operating points in terms of cache size and problem size are
	representative of realistic situations, which are not, and which are
	redundant. Using SPLASH-2 as an example, we hope to convey the
	importance of understanding the interplay of problem size, number of
	processors, and working sets in designing experiments and interpreting
	their results.

/parallel/languages/fortran/adaptor/frontend.tar.Z
	Adaptor frontend source(?) (requires PUMA and possibly other GMD

/parallel/occam/compilers/ocpp/ocpp.tar.Z
	OCPP is an occam pre-processor that is somewhat more friendly than
	the rather obscure non-supported INMOS tool PREOCC. The main
	advantages are:
	1) It comments out lines rather than removing them so toolset error
	messages still refer to the relevant source line.
	2) For the same reason it is able to reverse it's own effect and
	re-construct it's input.
	3) It offers more optional methods for defining symbols and extra
	directives.
	4) It can modify files in-place, and can optionally annotate
	conditional directives with useful debugging data.
	5) It possesses a (rather lightweight) capability to import constants
	from C header files directly into occam source code.
