            CoCheck --- Consistent Checkpoints
 
CoCheck is an environment that allows both process migration and
creating checkpoints of parallel applications. Currently, only PVM
applications are supported, but support for MPI is under construction.

See the Users' Guide mentioned below for more information.

We are now releasing Version V1_0 of the package under the terms of
the GNU Library General Public License and the GNU General Public
License.
 
CoCheck was tested to run on SunOs 4.1.x and DEC OSF/1. It requires
at least PVM Version 3.3.7 or higher.
 
The sources of the library and a Users' Guide are available via
the CoCheck WWW homepage
        http://wwwbode.informatik.tu-muenchen.de/CoCheck
              (131.159.0.43)
where you will also find instructions which files are required and a
more detailed description of CoCheck. If you do not have access to
WWW you could also directly refer to our anonymous ftp server:
        ftpbode.informatik.tu-muenchen.de
        (131.159.0.156)
The related files are located in the CoCheck directory.

The development of CoCheck is embedded into research projects of the
parallel processing group at the chair of Prof. Bode at Technische
Universitaet Muenchen. Please refer to
