PUB-Library (original) (raw)

Paderborn University BSP-Library

The PUB-Library is a C-Library to support development of parallel algorithm based on the "Bulk-Synchronous-Parallel-Model".

The Library offers buffered asynchronous message-passing between the nodes, organized in supersteps. At the begin of a superstep the nodes receive all messages which has been sent in the previous superstep. The PUB-Library supports in addition to send node-to-node messages other functions like broadcasts and parallel prefix operations with a set of nodes.

How do you use PUB?

We are currently writing a report about PUB and need your help. We want to describe how PUB is used and what for. Could you write a few sentences about:

• What you are doing with PUB?
• Which algorithms do you implement using PUB?
• Which machines do you use?
• Did you publish something using PUB? Many thanks for your help.
